Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) released the following statement after an airstrike killed Qassem Soleimani, head of the designated terrorist organization known as Iran's Quds Force

"The United States takes threats against its safety and security seriously. Qassem Soleimani was a long-time terrorist, who sought to export chaos and theocracy around the Middle East and was directly involved in the killings of hundreds of Americans. The President's decisive action sends a message that while our goal must be peace, the United States will not tolerate Iranian provocations or further attacks on Americans."
