Reactions of a Democrat vs a Republican - Death of Qasem Soleimani

[Ulli]

1. Republican

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) welcomed the elimination of Soleimani.

“The end of Qasem Soleimani is welcome and long-overdue justice for the thousands of Americans killed or wounded by his Iranian-controlled forces across the Middle East, and for the hundreds of thousands of Syrians and Iraqi Sunnis ethnically cleansed by his militias,” he tweeted, adding, “It is also long-overdue justice for our Israeli allies who have suffered decades of terrorism at the hands of Hezbollah terrorists commanded by his IRGC Quds Force.”

“The message to all those who mean harm to America is loud and clear,” added Cruz.

2. Democrat

Former US Vice President and Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden criticized the move as well.

"Trump just tossed a stick of dynamite into a tinderbox, and he owes the American people an explanation of the strategy and plan to keep safe our troops and embassy personnel, our people and our interests, both here at home & abroad, & our partners throughout the region," he said.
