Yeh he was widely known and liked in Iran, this is like killing a hugely popular top US general, head of CIA, SOCOM and Vice President all in one.
The BBC did a reasonable documentary on him a few months ago.
I can't see any way there won't be repurcussions but who know's what form they will take, could be an escallation in militia attacks in the middle east on US companies and military targets, could be an increase in back of anti-US fractions in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, could be a cyber attack, who knows, every chance we won't even hear about it for years but it won't gi unanswered. The whole reason the US annouced the Qud's were to be listed as a terrorist organisation was so that they could kill Suleimani at some point, so you would assume Iran had planned for this eventuality as well.
