"The US-based missile attack was successful," Iran's supreme leader this morning declared in a speech to the government. Khamenei also said: "We are in a period of critical decision making on a historical scale, the past should be a flashlight for us. The martyr Kassem Suleimani was not only courageous but also an adventurer who put himself in the front row in danger. Kassem Suleimani was not connected to the party or the stream "But it was simply a revolution and the revolution was important to him of all. I thank Sulimani for giving his soul for the revolution to the whole world."
Khamenei added a direct message to the United States and its allies: "The Americans brought disputes with them to the area and destroyed wherever they went. Our military action is only one blow, and the key response would be for America to leave the region. In a vicious country on the European continent, a meeting was held with some Iranian traitors, "They wanted to carry out plans that we had planned against our state. Our enemies are frustrated by the belief in our people and our fighters."
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani continued Khamenei's aggressive line and threatened: "The Americans have plucked Suleimani's hand from his body and we will pull your feet out of our area."
