Iranians, supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI, Mujahedin-e Khalq or MEK), and the people of Syria and Iraq, are rejoicing after the death of the Iranian regime’s notorious General, Qassem Soleimani, who was responsible for the death of hundreds of thousands of people both inside and outside Iran.
This is while the Iranian regime tries to portray the dead terrorist commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force as a so-called “Hero” of the Iranian people and people of the Middle East.
Videos and messages circulating on social media on Friday showed Iranians inside and outside Iran and the people of Iraq and Syria celebrating this irreparable blow to the Iranian regime and its supreme leader, Ali Khamenei.
An Iranian man describes IRGC Quds Force chief Qassem Soleimani as the “most hated figure,” and says he was overjoyed after hearing the news and will celebrate the entire day.

Background
On January 03, Qassem Soleimani the notorious commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards terrorist Quds Force, along with Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the head of Iraq’s suppressive Bassij was killed by the US military strike in Iraq.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, described the elimination of Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mehdi Muhandes as an “irreparable blow to the clerical regime.”
Mrs. Rajavi underlined, “The time had come to evict the mullahs from the region, especially from Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, and expel the IRGC from these countries. In this way, Iraq, which had been delivered by the United States to the clerical regime on a silver platter, will be liberated from the yoke of the religious fascism ruling Iran.”
