The US disregard for international laws:
The United States has consistently demonstrat- ed its lack of commitment to international laws. Throughout history, international laws have been treated as mere playthings by Washing- ton. The assassination of General Soleimani is yet another egregious example of the United States' flagrant disregard for international legal norms and conventions. The crime in question is particularly noteworthy because Iran was not involved in any active hostilities with the United States and had no intention of doing so. Hence, the premeditated murder of General Soleimani can be characterised as an act of state terrorism.
