Debka: Al Qods Brigades chief Gen. Soleimani seriously injured in Iraq by ISIS suicide squad
WNU Editor: Aside from a few blogs and Debka, no one else is reporting this story. Iranian news agencies have also posted nothing. If true .... this is big news. Gen. Qassem Soleimani is regarded to be one of the most influential leaders in Iran, and it is his office that is overseeing support for the Assad regime in Syria, and the involvement of Iran in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East. I am not surprised that the Islamic State would make him a high priority target .... if not their highest after Syrian President Assad. This is a breaking news story, and I will update it when more news becomes available.
WNU Editor: Hat Tip to regular reader James for giving me the lead.
