Am I the only one that thinks it’s strange that the US hasn’t attacked Mojtaba Khamenei? I thought that they were threatening to remove any leader previously associated with the regime.
Am I missing something?
It took six months to track and select the optimal time and place to attack. These things take a while.
It’s possible either the US or Israel had some extremely timely intelligence on the location of the old leader, and the new one is just being more careful…
I don’t believe the US knows his location. Mojtaba hasn’t been seen publicly since he was appointed.
Ali was (according to current public information) only successfully targeted due to CIA assets inside Iran tracking him and confirming a time where he would be in a building vulnerable to a strike.
I saw a headline the other day that his “base” was attacked, so I think they are trying to kill him.
I’m sure they just go out in public all the time after we just killed their father…
I mean didn’t they gather all their leaders in the same place (where they got attacked) not once but twice?
They tried when they killed his father, and they failed.
Blocked. I don’t have time for your shit.
I never said I agreed with the logic at all, I’m simply dumbfounded that they easily killed one leader but haven’t done anything about the next.
Presumably, the Israeli-US alliance hasn’t gotten around it.

It’s not strange, the Israeli government hasn’t ordered Trump to do it.
