Iranian military general and terrorist operative Qasem Soleimani -- like civil rights hero Martin Luther King? That was one of several propaganda-type of comments about Soleimani, killed in a drone strike on Trump’s orders, that were heard on the Tuesday edition of the New York Times podcast The Daily.
