Soleimani, who led a special forces unit of Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards, has been a key figure of Iranian and Middle East politics. Earlier, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., appeared to confirm that U.S. forces carried out the strike. “The defensive actions the U.S. has taken against #Iran & its proxies are consistent with clear warnings they have received,” Rubio said on Twitter. ...

very strong sell on USD/JPY signal because :

Possible Iran-US conflict over the death of the commander of Iran's Quds Force. Given the risk of financial aversion to the dollar and Japan Yen safe assets.

The volume doesn't agree with that price drop. Let's see what happens in the morning when USD buyers attempt to defend their positions.

Wait a few days. Iran does not have only one Qasem Soleimani. Wait for Iran to take retaliatory action. Then check where the prices are moving.

As an Iranian I say its highly probable mostly because our so called leader wants his popularity back
but I doubt it will last long as people are fed up with this kind of stuff but we may have no choice
and for me as a simple citizen of Iran they will send me to the war and refusal will translate into being executed
will people protest their decision is a question I like to get answered
so long my youth

A great country with rich history is ruined by a bunch of Mollahs who believe theUSA is devil and 12th imam will beam down from heavens to save them. Iranian people deserve better than this.
Again the USA kill someone without a trial, even if the guy was another Hitler, this is not how it should be done.
Does this mean the US can kill a non US citizen with no due process?

What does it mean for you and I if the USA decide we are targets? The Iranian people are not our enemies, the leaders of Iran maybe, but not the people.

Yea we tried last time but thousands got killed
we brought this upon ourselves there is no running away now we should have fought the corrupt government harder
in a country where elections are just for show up (we choose the candidates and you choose from them like hilarious right?) and you get killed for just protesting I say I'd better die in a war rather to see it continue

This is to do with the Iran wanting to become a global power house in Oil. The US can afford this to happen, so now a war will erupt. Oil prices increased today.

You missed two others...

I predict that President Obama will at some point attack Iran in order to save face!

Remember what I previously said--Obama will someday attack Iran in order to show how tough he is.
