In January of 2020, the Quds Force Major General, Qasem Soleimani, was killed while in a motorcade at the Baghdad International airport by a United States airstrike, at the order by President Donald J. Trump.
His death set the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the IRGC, his organization, on its ear, with revenge as their only goal.
Soleimani's boss, Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Hosseini Khamenei, ordered Brigadier General Esmail Ghaani, the commander of the terrorist group, to exact revenge directly against the United States using their unconventional warfare tactics.
The Quds Force-the English translation is Jerusalem Force-with ties to the Lebanese Hezbollah and Hamas, has a footprint in the United States, mainly in New York City. The organization is closely associated with terrorists in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Palestine Liberation Army, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, and Jordan, and proved to be disastrous.
Arash Hasham Hoosmand, a colonel in the Quds Force, was charged with exacting the revenge of Soleimani in the United States.
