Qasem Soleimani (March 11^th, 1957 – January 3^rd, 2020) was an Iranian general who was the commander of the Iranian Quds Force, the branch of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) which dealt with proxy warfare. He was often named the mastermind of Iranian proxy warfare in the Middle East, thus, expanding Iran’s influence in the region. Sources have also called him the second most powerful person in Iran after the Supreme Leader, which he had a close relationship with.

Soleimani began his military career during the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s, fighting against Ba’athist Iraq under Saddam Hussein. In 1998, he became the head of the Quds Force. He provided support to Hezbollah in Lebanon as well as supported Bashar al-Assad in Syria, fighting ISIS as well as Syrian opposition.

Soleimani was often compared to characters such as Karla, Keyser Söze, and the Scarlet Pinpernel, all of which were cunning, psychopathic masterminds of their universes.

He was killed by an American drone strike in Baghdad's International Airport, which has resulted in further tensions with Iran and the United States. The strike also killed Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, Deputy Chairman of the Iraqi militia force Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF).
