Head of Iran's nuke program assassinated

 Don Surber


"The Jerusalem Post reported, "The Head of Iran's nuclear program Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, 59, was assassinated in Damavand, east of Tehran, local Iranian news reported on Friday.

" 'Iran later confirmed the reports. 'The nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh was assassinated today by terrorists,' the Iranian Defense Ministry wrote in a statement, while not blaming any specific entity for the incident.' "

"Arab nations are normalizing relations with Israel after a decade or so of casual and unofficial cooperation among Israel and Saudi Arabia. Obama siding with Iran -- giving the rogue state $170 billion to blow on building nukes and terrorizing Israel -- sealed the deal.

"Maybe Mossad had a little help.

"Israel and its Arab nations share two things in common. They cannot allow Iran to beef up, and they cannot trust the United States to help them. President Donald John Trump may be the last friend they ever have in the White House.

"They also know Red China is an ultimate threat." . . .

"Mr. Fakhrizadeh’s killing, whoever was responsible, could have broad implications for the incoming Biden administration. It is bound to set off a sharp reaction in Iran, as did the American attack on Jan. 3 that killed Qassim Suleimani, the Iranian major general who ran the elite Quds force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.

"The killing of Mr. Fakhrizadeh could complicate the effort by President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. to revive the 2015 Iranian nuclear deal, as he has pledged to do, if the Iranians agree to return to the limits detailed in the accord.
