President Donald Trump’s killing of an Iranian military leader will haunt him and drag the U.S. into an “endless war,” according to one analyst at U.S think tank the Cato Institute.
The U.S. assassinated Iranian military leader Qasem Soleimani late last week with an airstrike on Iraq’s Baghdad Airport. Iran retaliated Wednesday by firing missiles at two Iraqi bases where American soldiers are stationed, although no casualties were reported and U.S. forces suggested there had been minimal damage.
