State Department: UN report ‘whitewashing’ Soleimai’s record by criticizing drone strike
WASHINGTON — The United States blasts a UN finding that a US drone strike that killed a top Iranian general was unlawful, saying the report whitewashed Qassem Soleimani’s record.
“It takes a special kind of intellectual dishonesty to issue a report condemning the United States for acting in self-defense while whitewashing General Soleimani’s notorious past as one of the world’s deadliest terrorists,” State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus says.
