If Iran’s Assassinations Are Illegal, Why Aren’t Trump’s?

“The Justice Department is accusing three New York men with conspiring to assassinate Donald Trump. The criminal complaint charges that the government of Iran is directing the assassination effort. U.S. officials are making it clear that a foreign state-sponsored assassinations will not be permitted in the United States. After all, a state-sponsored assassination is nothing more than murder, and the Justice Department is making it clear that murder will not be countenanced in the United States, even when the murder is being directed by a foreign regime. It is worth pointing out, however, that Trump himself got a pass for having assassinated an Iranian general named Qasem Soleimani in 2020 when Trump was serving as president. Given that assassination is murder, why wasn’t Trump criminally charged with murdering Soleimani?” (11/12/24)
