		<Abstract>“The Legal Implications of the United States&#039; Strike on General Soleimani, His Associates and Iran&#039;s Response” offers a comprehensive examination of the assassination of General Soleimani from the perspective of international law.  This book sheds light on the subject by delving into the various dimensions of international law, including international treaty law, international criminal law, the use of force in international law, humanitarian law, and the fight against terrorism, with a focus on elucidating the act of terrorism committed by the United States. The book&#039;s strengths lie in its emphasis on international treaties and its reflection of Eastern thought regarding the assassination of an anti-terrorism hero within the framework of international law. Furthermore, the book seeks to establish legal convergence in the Middle East regarding the assassination of General Soleimani and to counter United States’ Lawfare against Iran&#039;s authorities. However, the book falls short in failing to address certain recent developments, such as changes in foreign policy after the Trump Administration, Iran&#039;s intention to bring the case before the International Court of Justice, and the conclusion of legal proceedings concerning General Soleimani&#039;s assassination in Iran and Iraq.</Abstract>
