Soleimani shouldn't have been the story; the story should have been Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis bc it was his Popular Mobilization Unit (PMU) forces that attacked our embassy in Iraq. We should have said that we targeted Muhandis and didn't know Soleimani was with him since Soleimani was forbidden to travel outside of Iran and thus bc he violated the UN mandate he became collateral damage.
Why?
We did it for a purpose. We wanted it to be clear so as to accomplish an end. We didn't simply want to kill Soleimani. We were sending a message to Iran that we are holding them responsible for these other groups they are coordinating with.
And, even if you ignore that, I'd just assume that we tell the truth.

Of course we did

And targeting Muhandis accomplishes the same goal
