Looks like too. See the retaliation by Iran
One cant rule out that a big powerful country like Iran might have different factions with different interests, who might cause a power struggle. I hate people who blindly follows EVERYTHING like if Iran is 100% perfect, has no flaws, and is being directed directly by Allah himself.
I love my country and is as nationalistic as can be, but blatantly deny anything that could be negative like Iran is a divine country created and ruled by god himself is blasphemy
Soleimani was the second most powerful man in Iran and the MOST loved by Khamenei. How is it impossible that some faction from within wanted to get rid of him?
