Israel Appears to Have Killed Hamas Leader in Iran with Airstrike

[User]

Just amazing. Good riddance to this thug and a bold move by Israel to do this in Iran. Sends a pretty clear message to Iran as well, that they were able to carry out this strike on their soil. Lets see how Biden/Harris react to this now. 

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh is killed in Iran by an alleged Israeli strike, threatening escalation

"BEIRUT (AP) — Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed by a predawn airstrike in the Iranian capital Wednesday, Iran and the militant group said, blaming Israel for a shock assassination that risks escalating the conflict even as the U.S. and other nations were scrambling to prevent an all-out regional war. Iran’s supreme leader vowed revenge against Israel."

Unfortunately, FOR THEM Iran showed weakness in the last provocation and exchange.  If they retaliate, it would be symbolic at best.

This is a real joke of a paragraph too. It isn't that Hezbollah killing a bunch of kids in Israel with their repeated daily attacks is killing hopes to prevent an escalation... oh no, it is that Israel fights back. This is such garbage. 

"But international diplomats trying to defuse tensions were alarmed. One Western diplomat, whose country has worked to prevent an Israeli-Hezbollah escalation, said the double strikes in Beirut and Tehran have “almost killed” hopes for a Gaza cease-fire and could push the Middle East into a “devastating regional war.” The diplomat spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive situation."

It is unfortunate that Iran showed weakness...

Are you sure you wrote that how you wanted to there?

Let me retract that: "Unfortunately for them. "

 

I'm glad that a terrorist leader was taken out. I do not want escalation. And yes, I realize those are contradictory hopes and dreams.

According to this article, Haniyeh had a net worth of $4 billion. That was an awful lot of aid money that went to Gaza.

That is a massive amount of money compared to the population of Gaza. Good Riddance to this thug.

Yahoooooo    .

The next ones will be murderous leaders of Islamic Republic. 

He was sent to hell in downtown Tehran, yet another solid proof that Islamic Republic is a paper tiger. It can be easily removed.

Islamic Republic not Iran. Iran (stands for the land of Aryans) is for Israel.
