It is legitimate but Interpol has said they won't honor the request.
NotMyUsualOnlineName
They won't honor it because their charter/constitution prohibits it. They're not allowed to get involved in cases of a political, military,
religious or racial character. Pretty sure this would fall under at least two or three of those.

Soleimani killed a LOT of innocent people and lead many planned terror attacks. He was not a man we shouldve let live people. Be grateful

This hit was the equivalent of China killing Colin Powell on a trip to Europe.

wouldn't that open them up for trial for shooting down that civilian plane?

That was trumps fault. If he didn’t bomb soleimani then Iran never would have confused a 747 for a missile.

We'll give them Trump, but can we throw Pence and ol Mitchy in for free... as like a combo deal?
Funny. But: we can't really do that. May as well just assassinate them on our own if we're going to descend into anarchy.
Gryphonosiris
Get in line Iran, there are a couple states who plan on sending him to jail too.
beaubrent
The problem is that Iran cannot come to court claiming terrorism when this general was known for that, they have no standing like this.
FrolickingFrolicking
Standing does not mean what you think it means.
wisco97
Have to taken a look at the history of US foreign policy? We’ve supported many groups who opposition’s governments would consider terrorist
The difference is, if a government where to assassinate a top US general because of it, there would be war
It's all just make-believe. International relations are about military and economic power. Nobody cares about morals.
[deleted]
No, nations are not held accountable by the UN but by some nations with a lot of power pretending to act as the UN. The rules are a joke.
LSKG
they dont have to push the terrorism angle just the assassination one
INeverWaitForIt
It's actually a war crime to invite someone to peace talks then kill them. Called perfidy. So yes, Trump is guilty and should be tried.
Camelspotting
Guilt of which part of that?
Jonnythetrout
Except that didn't happen? Did I miss something?
it did. Soleimani was in Iraq because the US govt requested the Iraqi gov't to invite him for talks.
Source? Because last I checked, he was tied to the riot that was going on outside of the Baghdad embassy.
LetMeTellYouSomethingAboutHowTheWorldWorks
Not only did this not happen, but it still wouldn't be illegal since he was involved in an illegal war. Geneva doesn't apply to terrorists.
https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/qassem-soleimani-death-iran-baghdad-middle-east-iraq-saudi-arabia-a9272901.html
Soleimani isn't technically a terrorist, as he is a uniformed member of the Iranian armed forces, and he was there in an act of diplomacy.
LjubljanaJeNajlepseMestoNaSvetu
Murder is murder. Even if you murder a bad guy.
No it isn't. Did you forget about war?
1. USA is not at war with Iran. 2. Murder is also possible during war
The Geneva Convention doesn't cover terrorists. If your are a terrorists, the US has the right to kill you anywhere on earth at any time.
No it does not. Its called murder.

Ok they can have him idgaf, I mean shit we'll throw in some Karens in there as well for the hell of it

They don't want Karens, they want Donald Rumsfeld for giving Saddam chemical weapons.

They'll probably get the name wrong and end up in India instead.

The thought of handing over any US citizen for a warrant in Iran, Syria, North Korea, etc. is absolutely hilarious.

rcraigsmith9000
Thank you!!!
madjo
The reverse has happened (see for instance Quantamo Bay) and that's less than hilarious.
Now handing over a sitting president? Yes, that's just a ridiculous thought.
I feel like that’s more of a “hand over this terrorist if you don’t want our drone to come get him instead” situation.
Who decides who is a terrorist? It wasn't a court of peers, that's for damn sure.
ParryLost
Can we hand him over *after* we vote him out? That way he's not a US leader anymore!
Would you be willing to do the same with a retired Democrat president? Whatever precedent is set can be applied to all future presidents.
Stuckinaboxthere
Yeah, if they broke international law, why not?
Problem is that foreign adversaries will always claim that the law was broken whether true or not

It's just an arrest warrant, there's nothing special about it. Countries can issue arrest warrants all they want, it doesn't do anything.

BSwann
There's a difference between war and drone striking government officials.
GloomyGusterson
Drone strike on an Iran general in Iraq. During violent protests at Iraq/USA embassy. Foreign general near violence sounds like war.
I mean the US was dragging people off the streets of ally countries to torture them in the 2000's
ACSwineburne
Why do you think this is an argument? There's still a huge difference between assassinating a head of state and conducting war operations.
Not "head of state", but the point remains.
CityYeti
Yeah, they're basing it on the time America launched a drone strike on their general

George W. Bush was convicted of war crimes by the Kuala Lumpur commission for the Iraq war.
Nope. It's basically just grandstanding, anyway. Interpol doesn't have the power to arrest, they basically just act as a liaison between
member nations and provide support through databases. The closest we've come to this was when Bush and Cheney were "
"convicted" by the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Commission, but that commission doesn't have any real legal authority since it wasn't founded and

Diplomatic immunity doesn't come into play here. Diplomatic immunity is a privilege handed willingly by a sovereign entity. The reason why
this arrest warrant won't lead to anything has nothing to do with diplomatic immunity and everything to do with the fact that they just
obviously cannot enforce it.

Generally speaking, I agree with you, but...
Legally speaking you should be sending him to Iraq, as that's were the strike happened.
Given that the parties involved are 2 government officials of different countries, some type of international court would make sense

Let’s get him out of office first. Then we can send him to the Hague or Iran or the shadow realm, what have you.

Is Iranian shadow Hague far enough? I was thinking a flash of Jade Light, or maybe the Phantom Zone. Or the Sartan's Labyrinth.
Aquilarden
Probably. Nonsense? Also yes. Iran knows its isolation from the West is not changing soon, so cozying to US foes is a good option.
blumpk1npie
It will play well nationally. There have been many protests in recent months.
Iran has historically used mostly unbacked rhetoric to further diplomatic goals, often with Arabs. This looks like a message to Russia/China

That Iran issued a warrant? Yeah. But as most outlets are discussing, it’s a government stunt to divert their equally bad handling of covid
Tobecontinued1992
Its legit, but its being done as a joke. Because when reports of bounties being put US soldiers came to the Iranian general we killed 1/2
He actually passed the information along to us, he didnt pretend nothing happened or he easnt informed. Basically 2/3
"Our iranian general cared more about american troops than your own president." 3/3

Dictatorships pull these kind of stunts quite often.
You think the arrest warrant is the “dictatorship stunt” and not the US murdering people with a missile
reload2456
It's not one or the other its one in response to the other. It's definitely a stunt as absolutely nothing will come of it and everyone knows
That including the people issuing the warrant. There is zero chance the rest of the world tries to execute that warrant. They'd be better
Off with a sizeable bounty than a legal warrant. At least with the bounty someone crazy might take em up on the offer.
It’s like a practical joke. Only funny and sad at the same time. Diplomatic gift giving is emotional.

India-Pakistan. They hate each other like North and South Korea. They both have nuclear weapons and are constantly at each other's throats.
I don't think you understand what the WW in WW3 stands for...

WW1 started because Austria and Serbia had a dispute over ~10km of border, alliances and defense pacts brought in everyone else
Plus those allies all wanted to go to war...
CommentProvider
Greenland vs. Iceland. No idea, I just like the long odds.
YourMomsSidePiece
You really need more than just 2 countries to be a "World War"
All of those countries have military alliances that would draw in most of the world. WW1 was Austria vs Serbia over ~10km of disputed border
schlummi
North korea has no allies. Irans only ally is syria. None of it would be an a piece of cake as war in afghan/iraq, it would be a war, not an
invasion without anyone fighting back. But it would be far, far from a world war. China-india could become one, but both nations are sane.

Im booked solid through November, I can do December and January, but I'm not optimistic about survival numbers beyond that.
If you win you'll have to share the pot with maintenance, that okay?
I can’t. I got Yellowstone eruption ? for August.

Nope, I have the Murder Hornets Act 2 for October, can we bump alien invasion to December
comicgeekynessover9000
Sorry, I've got murder robot Santa for December, I guess we could try and fit it in with the second coming of christ in January
Can't sorry, were all booked up
So what we gonna do with murder hornets? needs to be summer for them, wait to sep-oct and send them to Australia?

November might be more civil war.

Didn't the locust thing already happen or is happening in india.
(1/2)There are record number of locust swarms. They are mainly in East Africa, but Iran/Pakistan/western India was also hit in May/juni
(2/2) they are forecast to spread a fair way into China and all across sub Saharan Africa. Forewarning shortages in August... calling it now

The problem is that Iran cannot come to court claiming terrorism when this general was known for that, they have no standing like this.

It's actually a war crime to invite someone to peace talks then kill them. Called perfidy. So yes, Trump is guilty and should be tried.

Guilt of which part of that?
Jonnythetrout
Except that didn't happen? Did I miss something?

it did. Soleimani was in Iraq because the US govt requested the Iraqi gov't to invite him for talks.

Source? Because last I checked, he was tied to the riot that was going on outside of the Baghdad embassy.

Who decides who is a terrorist? It wasn't a court of peers, that's for damn sure.

Can we hand him over *after* we vote him out? That way he's not a US leader anymore!

North korea has no allies. Irans only ally is syria. None of it would be an a piece of cake as war in afghan/iraq, it would be a war, not an

It’s one eruption coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.

Geologist, can confirm. That old hole blew its big load already. A new younger hotter hole will come along someday

Ahem

Tons. The amount of material that will go to the atmosphere is ridiculous. Crops will suffer, some people will starve or die from exposure.

But after it setlle the land will be extremely fertile its the bonus of living near a volcano

The Americas will be screwed definitely, the worldwide implications could be devastating to say the least.

Yellowstone is on the decline in power right now.

I don't want to die this year

Nuclear winter worldwide is possible but not super likely.
GruntThumper
Working a tour in the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter...
CthulhusGreasyBallsack
volcanic winter*
AlexjoneswatchingTporn
Well it will send most of the world into an ice age
nateglen350
Well if that happens, then whoever had crops failure due to global warming, losses out

In a worst case eruption

I would imagine that's the finale for December. If it happens in October, there won't be a Nov/Dec. 2020 won't let us off that easy.
Batmannequin
It just means that 2020 has been cancelled mid-season because nobody was enjoying it.
KindofaBadPerson
It'd only hit 1/3 of America. Lol it's not like the world's going to deflate. Now the Real finale is the Giant Meteor. Giant Meteor 2020.
Anonymous0199846
That much lost economic activity and ash actually would impact the whole world.
KindofaBadPerson
You're right. Not immediately though. We might see a global winter or something but that's be a 2021-22 problem.
lindabelchersfirstcousin
I thought this month was gonna be locusts?! I had WW3 for November.
BahamutBBob
As long as it happens before I go next summer, so we can play Mad Max in north america.

Worst locusts invasion in 30 years in india, it is also coming to Africa. Your money on Lucust for july and ww3 in nov should be safe.
jery007
There is a locust problem, don't remember where though
ArandomDane
Nahh this is just a call back to january, so it does not count as a new thing. So we get two things for July!!! Weeeee
Metals4J

Locusts already happened/happening - East Africa has been devastated.
Zixtank
Nono, Civil War 2 is now.
lobsterbutch
I’m still waiting to see the murder hornets show up. But time is money, so we might as well have everything happen at once. Efficient.
Dildmaster
No no, the locusts come after the rivers of blood and before the famine. WW3 follows shortly after.
pareidoliaperson
I have bad news and good new for you; locusts are already a been has.
ProbablyPoe
WW3 won't start until after the famine begins
TheManWithTheVan
The locusts are in India right now. Might need to push back the apocalypse swarm for a few months. Maybe late August, early September?
Fairdinkums
Pay up bucko
dullsmile
The locusts have been decimating African crops for months now.
CaptainObviousAndHisMinions
Did you see NK ordered the teardown of the Interkorean building? That went south fast, no pun intended.
Isi151e
Everything in due time, you still might win for november
may825
Cicadas. And they're completely harmless except for being loud and clumsy
ErectileFunction
Aliens in July. Can we bump locusts to August?
Sjama
But locusts are already there in India and Pakistan and were bothering Africa a few month ago. Locusts are just the side disaster
AllGloryToTheDarkLord
We already had locusts had locusts this year
Threadnomancer
Nah man you hear about the Sahara sand in the SE? Thats gonna be August. Locust has to go after rage virus in Sep
Ilovestormswolvesbees
Scorpions for July. Already on my doorstep.
hopethisoneworks
I can give you September or October to cause the global famine
schananagans
Im booked solid through November, I can do December and January, but I'm not optimistic about survival numbers beyond that.
Threadnomancer
If you win you'll have to share the pot with maintenance, that okay?
lindabelchersfirstcousin
I can’t. I got Yellowstone eruption ? for August.
VolenStoner
No can do. I have crab people for September can we bump alien invasion for october?
generikusernamehasalreadybeentaken
Nope, I have the Murder Hornets Act 2 for October, can we bump alien invasion to December
comicgeekynessover9000
Sorry, I've got murder robot Santa for December, I guess we could try and fit it in with the second coming of christ in January
Isi151e
Can't sorry, were all booked up
3141593653589793
So what we gonna do with murder hornets? needs to be summer for them, wait to sep-oct and send them to Australia?
myotheralt
November might be more civil war.
nonCanadianGoose
This is just the sequel to January
MoonMoon89
Civil War 2 for November, WW3 for December.
SleepIsDeathPractice
I think Civil War will be December, with all the mail in votes it could take a while to count
themobileappisbroken
If you think the world is gonna go to war instead of sitting and watching civil war 2 you're sorely mistaken.
lindabelchersfirstcousin
But...but, whatta bout the locusts?
bracketfungus
The locusts will have to come during the war. For maximum damage.
quibblery6
I have 100 dollars on them teaming up with the murder hornets, they better not disappoint me
TheobromineAddict
Wait, who's got "Trump re-elected" for November disaster?
onlyhalfghost
you mean the season finale of America?
Tyggna
If you go off apocalypse writings (Revelation and the like) I think next is losing 1/3rd of freshwater
floofnmeeps
Locusts are in Africa at the moment https://n.pr/3eJzQfX
ItaloColombianAdventuresInJapan

ItaloColombianAdventuresInJapan
for those who think the locust thing was only in africa and the middle east: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-53221211
BiasedFortuna
Didn't the locust thing already happen or is happening in india.
ArandomDane
(1/2)There are record number of locust swarms. They are mainly in East Africa, but Iran/Pakistan/western India was also hit in May/juni
ArandomDane
(2/2) they are forecast to spread a fair way into China and all across sub Saharan Africa. Forewarning shortages in August... calling it now
ArandomDane
Food shortages*
Ilovestormswolvesbees
Oh no! I can’t order my wedding/Halloween costume if China is eaten!
ArandomDane
Considering we are talking about food shortages, I have to ask. Are Are you planing on having an edible wedding dress.
