If you're talking about Trump's assassination of Qasem Soleimani, then I have to admit that I'm less familiar with thr details there since it happened while I was out of commission.

From the wiki article, it looks like the root problem was Trump being an idiot and loose cannon by reneging the Iran nuclear deal, leading to a crisis in the Gulf, which he then tried to solve by killing that guy.

Can you expand on the question?
