Ted Cruz leads GOP Senate push for resolution praising Soleimani killing

One of the Senate’s leading Iran critics introduced a resolution on Thursday praising the Trump administration's successful airstrike last week against Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani.
Sen. Ted Cruz and 42 Republican co-sponsors urged the Senate to express its support for killing the leader of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps and its Quds Force. The text of the resolution praises the U.S. military and intelligence community for their role in taking out the Iranian military leader and “commends the President for ordering the successful operations to locate and eliminate” him.
The proposal also says Soleimani’s death “represents a measure of justice and relief for the families and friends of the hundreds of American men and women who lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan” as a result of Iranian-backed terrorism.
“At a time when partisanship and political differences threaten to divide us, President Trump and his administration should be commended for bringing an end to Qassem Soleimani, a terrorist responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people across the Middle East, including at least 603 American service members,” said Cruz, calling the strike a "successful mission to defend America’s national security interests and eliminate a terrorist mastermind.”
The move by the Texas Republican and his colleagues comes days following an Iranian retaliatory strike against U.S. positions in Iraq, during which the Iranians also shot down an airliner taking off from an airport in Tehran, killing the nearly two hundred passengers on board. Democrats and a small number of Republicans have cast doubts on the wisdom of Trump’s decision to take out Iran’s key influence agent in the region.
