"Move to Iran" is trending on social media.
Newsweek reported:
Rose McGowan's tweeted apology to Iran early Friday morning was met with swift and harsh backlash on Twitter.
"Dear #Iran, The USA has disrespected your country, your flag, your people. 52% of us humbly apologize. We want peace with your nation. We are being held hostage by a terrorist regime. We do not know how to escape. Please do not kill us. #Soleimani," McGowan tweeted along with a gif of a waving Iranian flag.
Her apology followed confirmation that President Donald Trump ordered the drone strike on Baghdad that killed Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the leader of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Quds Force.
McGowan's message sparked instant outrage from Twitter users who pointed out Soleimani's controversial history of aligning with terrorist organizations in the Middle East and ordering the killing of Americans. The Pentagon also recently said Soleimani and the Quds Force were to blame for the attack on the US embassy in Baghdad on December 31. Some even suggested she move to Iran.McGowan later tried to walk back her apology, saying she "freaked out", but even this was met with ridicule.
