Iraqis were seen dancing in the streets at the news of Soleimani’s death:
Iraqis are celebrating the death of #QassemSoleimani.
Let's not forget. When Iraqi pro-democracy activists were demonstrating Tahrir Square, forces propped up by Soleimani were terrorizing them.
Now, can you blame these Iraqis for celebrating the death of Soleimani?

Iranians who have been forced to live under ruthless military rule, took to Twitter to thank Trump with the hashtag #TnxPOTUS4Soleimani:
Who is breathing a sigh of relief that Gen Soleimani is dead? Dissidents, feminists & secularists from Iran, Iraq, Syria & Lebanon.
He was a Shia Osama bin Laden with a national treasury & flag.
Who is crying foul? Obama alum Ben Rhodes, CodePink & Squad cocreator Cenk Uyger??♀️

We Iranians thank @realDonaldTrump for his decisive order. He made a promise and he kept it. Unlike under Obama era when Israelis wanted to kill terrorist Soleimani, but Obama stoped them because he wanted to make a broken deal with a terrorist regime. #TnxPOTUS4Soleimani

There are thousands more tweets.
Some decried the total lack of coverage from Western media until now
At last 1500 killed in 2 days just recently in Iran by the hands of Islamic regime.
Not a single word from western media!
Now look at this comedy show they’ve started on twitter.
A terrorist dies,and people in western countries are worried about Worl War III

Others singled out those criticizing the US action, saying that they do not need uninformed Westerners speaking on their behalf:
The number of idiots under this tweet is an evidence of how uninformed Americans are.
In Persian, we call them “Kabk”?
Fake news has truly done a great job in the states. ??
