Feel Good Story Of The Day: Top Iranian General Killed In Syria

Honestly the Syrian civil war is fantastic for the US as is....jihadis killing Assad's troops, Assad's troops killing jihadis and the occasional high ranking Iranian General gets killed by, who cares?

Al-Manar did not disclose the name of the Iranian official and only described him as the head of an Iranian agency responsible for "rebuilding Lebanon." According to the report, the incident occurred on Syrian soil when the Iranian official was on his way back from Damascus to Lebanon.

An Iranian independent news website - mashreghnews.ir - reported earlier that the name of the Iranian official was Gen. Hassan Shateri, a commander in the Guard's Quds Force. The report said the attack was carried out by "mercenaries of the Zionist regime," however the credibility of the report is unclear.

The report added that Gen. Ghasem Soleimani, the head of the Guard's Quds Force, visited Shateri's family to express his condolences. The website did not provide additional details about his death.

The Quds Force is Iran's main organization dealing with international terrorist activity with the cooperation of several different terrorist organizations which are backed by Iran. In the past, Israeli intelligence officials described Soleimani as the central figure in Iran's terrorist network.

About the Quds Force, that's the group that Iran used to run its shadow war against the US in Iraq and Afghanistan. The bastards are responsible for a lot of American deaths and injuries.

Hopefully Shateri's death was slow and painful.

Yes, I know a lot of civilians are hurt by the fighting in Syria but from a cold hard US perspective, the more time the bad guys spend fighting and killing each other the better.
