Iran has sought an Interpol warrant for two former American congressmen who have called for the assassination of a commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) chief Major General Qassem Suleimani, Press TV reported.

Earlier, Major General Suleimani addressed a message to the U.S., saying he's not afraid of so-called death threats. He underscored, that "death threat is nothing" and he's ready to die, if it's God's will.

Tensions regarding the death threat issue have increased after several American neoconservatives including retired U.S. Army general Jack Keane and former CIA agent Reuel Marc Gerecht, urged the Obama administration to use covert action against Iran and target some of its top officials, one of which is Major General Qassem Suleimani, an IRGC Quds Force chief.
