President Donald Trump clearly had authority to kill Qassem Soleimani, U.S Attorney-General William Barr said adding that the White-House consulted with his department before the strike on the Iranian-commander. Barr told reporters that Soleimani was a "legitimate military target" and the strike was a "legitimate act of self-defence." "The Department-of-Justice was consulted and frankly I don't think it was a close call," Barr said.
