Israel's Alleged Assassination in Tehran Serves 2 Purposes: Sabotage New President, Get U.S. Into War
Netanyahu will never have to support like he does now with his extremist Knesset and AIPAC extremist U.S. Congress like he does now
Israel’s alleged decision to blow up Hamas’s top political leader in Tehran who was in the country for the presidential inauguration of a potential moderate who could improve relations with the West, is its latest attempt to sabotage the new administration in Tehran so it will have to respond and then get labeled a terrorist regime in the pro-Israel media in the U.S.

Amir Saied Iravani, Iran's ambassador and permanent representative to the UN, said Thursday that the assassination was par for the course for Israel, which has been destabilizing the region for decades. But he said, “Israel was also pursuing a political goal with this act, aiming to disrupt the first day of the new government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which has prioritized strengthening peace, and stability in the region, and enhancing cooperation and constructive engagement with international community.”
Masoud Pezeshkian, Iran’s new president is a heart doctor and seen as a centrist and a reform candidate. Anadolu Ajansi reported: “Pezeshkian gave indications he would be more open to diplomatic engagement with the world, including the West, and intends to initiate reforms in economic and cultural domains.”

But Israel cannot allow that, just like it funded Hamas.
TRENDPOST: Josep Borrell, the European Union’s foreign policy head, said in a speech last week that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been opposed to a two-state solution for 30 years, and it was Israel that created Hamas.
Borrell expressed dismay over Netanyahu’s comments that a two-state solution with the Palestinians is out of the question after the 7 October Hamas attack. He said Israel’s decision to reject the solution has “gone as far as to create Hamas themselves.”
“Yes, Hamas has been financed by the Israeli government in an attempt to weaken the Palestinian Authority led by Fatah,” he said, according to Euronews. He said Netanyahu, himself, has been boycotting the solution for 30 years.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed AIPAC’s Congress last week and the Extremist Evangelical Speaker Mike Johnson referred to him as “His Excellency.”

Like clockwork, after the meeting, Israel blamed Hezbollah for a mystery rocket strike in the stolen Golan Heights that killed 12 that witnesses said was, in fact, caused by an Iron Dome missile. That provided Israel the momentum to carry out its latest assassination campaign, including the killing of Hamas' political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
Alon Pinkas, a columnist for Haaretz, wrote “Israel could have killed Haniyeh anywhere in the Middle East, yet deliberately chose to do so in Iran during the inauguration. That's not daring – that's the very definition of provocative.”
He wrote: “Israel left Iran no choice but to retaliate, the scope of which remains the big question mark.”
Professor John Mearsheimer said in an interview published in April that Israel is “basically out of control” after it struck the Iranian consulate in Syria in another assassination.
“There is really no limits to what the Israelis will do. They think they’re pretty much free to do whatever they want,” he told Glenn Greenwald’s “System Update.”
He said he believes Israel has been trying to pick a fight with Hezbollah — “not only to punish Hezbollah, but I think they saw as an opportunity to do ethnic cleansing on the West Bank. I think the Israeli view, deep down, is that the bigger the war is, the greater the opportunity for ethnic cleansing… not just in Gaza, but in the West Bank as well.”
Yoav Gallant, Israel’s defense head, said in an interview in January that Israel is not fighting a single enemy, but rather an entire “axis” and “the world needs to understand this is different.”
“My basic view: We are fighting an axis, not a single enemy,” Gallant told The Wall Street Journal. “Iran is building up military power around Israel in order to use it.”
Haniyah's murder in Tehran is Isreal's answer to moderation by Iran's new President. Israel has no intention to live with Palestinians or any other non-Jewish ethnicity. Which means constant conflict with the Arab and Persian populations that surround it. Trouble is, there will be little change in US foreign policy toward Israel or Iran come January 20, 2025. Trump and Vance have both spoken in tough language about future relations with Iran. Vance to Republicans at the convention, "Punch them hard!" Trump followed that with "we'll hit them hard" if......If what? If Iran retaliates after Israel pulls off assassinating Lebanese leaders on Tehran's soil? As fir Trump, he's got a killer streak in him. He killed Soleimani on Mike Pompeo's recommendation. Pompeo lied to Trump, telling him that Soleimani was responsible for killing thousands of US soldiers. That would be true if we considered Isis as a member of the US military. Soleimani led Iran's war against Isis when the Obama administration was arming Isis and FSA Jihadi rebels in Syria with manpads stored in a depot in Benghazi.
The message to Hamas is: “you can run, but you cannot hide”.
