The Iranian leaders have declared a 3-day mourning for their military leader, Soleimani.
It appears that some people, we don't know how many, held him in high regard.
If the 2nd most powerful person in this country was assassinated, how would our country react? Are we really that different from Iran?
They are talking about "reprisal" and "revenge".
They are a very patient people.
Will we ever learn from history?
