Again, we are a terrorist organization per the designation Iran has assigned us an therefor if they attacked anything related to our military they would be doing so in the attempt to prevent a terrorist organization from carrying out terrorist attacks. Just deeming a part of a foreign government a terrorist group and pretending like that gives you cart blanche to do what you want isn't going to hold water with the international community as we have seen other countries coming out, even our allies, and saying they aren't backing this.

As I said, if Iran did this exact same thing to us we would call it an act of war. Only difference here is we are America and they aren't so we blindly back any violations of international sovereignty as us just doing what's best.

IDC if he were the Supreme Leader; if he is the head of an organization we classify as a Terrorist organization then he is the leader of a terrorist organization. WE have not classified Iran's Army as a terrorist organization; only the part that targets civilians.

And as you keep failing to acknowledge is what other countries consider us should have 0 bearing on our actions when it comes to safeguarding our citizens.

We will see if this holds water with the international community. What did they do when we classified them as a terrorist organization.
International Community "US why did you kill him?
US: "Because he was the head of a terrorist organization that was targeting US citizen and was an eminent danger."
International Community: "Didn't you realize he was a General in another sovereign country?"
US: "That's their problem, not ours"
