OverĀ the weekend, the Iranian government issued an arrest warrant for President Trump for the January drone strike that killed General Qasem Soleimani, the leader of Iranās Quds Force.
According to CNBC, Tehran is asking Interpol for help. The attorney general of Tehran, Ali Alghasi-Mehr, said that Trump, and 35 others that Iran has accused of being involved in Soleimaniās death, faces āmurder and terrorism charges.ā He was also quoted as saying that he asked Interpol to issue āred noticesā for them, which is the highest level of an Interpol arrest notice.
However, Interpolās guidelines forbid it from āundertaking any intervention or activities of a politicalā nature. Also, red notices cannot force other countries to extradite suspects.
In other words, this means nothing for Trumpāitās just an empty, angry vent from the Iranian mullahs.
And itās fun to watch the worldās largest state-sponsor of terror, responsible for killing thousands of Americans over the decades, flail like this. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer bunch of people.
