Hamas leader’s killing could trigger Iran-Israel war

https://asiatimes.com/2024/07/hamas-leaders-killing-could-trigger-iran-israel-war/

This is an escalation of the pattern of Israeli assassinations in Iran. A number of Iranian nuclear scientists have been assassinated. Iran seems unable to secure itself and stop these attacks, but this one may result in further escalation and a wider war.

 

Weird I thought I would see Palestinians and others celebrating the death of the Hamas leader since they claimed to be Hamas victims too.

 

Source?

Or are we just suppose to trust an anonymous poster?

 

Great news. Hope Israel did it—the more it demonstrates its superiority over Iran the better

 

Not really an escalation considering Israel has done this before with Iran's on civilian citizens as you have already noted. And Iran considers the Kerman attack to have been made by Israel as well.

Some online are even hinting that Iran allowed it to happen. I believe that speculation is unlikely. ISIS has made attacks on Iran before, Iran has an ISIS problem. Iran believes ISIS is an Israeli proxy.

ISIS was behind the Kerman attack. Iran still blames Israel and the United States, though. - Atlantic Council

Iran believes ISIS is an Israeli proxy because ISIS has never attacked Israel nor helped any Arab country.

In addition, Israeli hasbara supports ISIS.

Whether or not ISIS is a proxy of Israel, ISIS always ends up attacking Israel's enemies but never Israel. I wouldn't be surprised if ISIS is behind this attack as well.

 

it's all over the news and there is a link in the ops post as well, could get ugly...

"Blaming Israel, Iran’s leaders vow to make it ‘regret’ killing Haniyeh in Tehran"

So you've got nothing support the following statement:

 

huh? I just posted a link from another news source, "The Times of Israel"

it's a breaking story, not sure what more you think can be provided

 

Now I understand. You might have oldyoungin on ignore. And that would make your post make sense.

I was not responding to the OP.

 

you're the one that asked for a source, I was just giving a source...

oh, yep, I thought yours was a standalone post, I thought was in reply to the op

 

I was not responding to the OP. I was responding to Oldyoungin whom you seem to have on ignore. Click on show ignored comments and it will make sense.

 

yep, I get it now, I was thinking your reply was to the op

 

One more Muslin fundamentalist terrorist now enjoying his 72 virgins .... GOOD!

This coward has been sitting in Qatar ordering the deaths of thousands of people. Now he's gotten a taste of his own medicine.

 

Do you have a source for that or are we suppose to take your word for it?

 

I follow the news. He was the Hamas leader who was pulling the strings from Qatar. As a big wig in the Iranian terrorist network, Iran invited him to Iran to celebrate the inauguration of their new president. He figured he'd be safe there. He wasn't.

 

So, no source - no source at all - just speculation?

 

The world is a better place today.

 

Okay, here are links for you.

https://apnews.com/article/iran-hamas-israel-30968a7acb31cd8b259de9650014b779

 

Neither of those links supports this statement:

Do you take the statement back or do we just have to take your word for it?

 

It's the truth and it's been reported for months. If you keep bugging me, I'll just ignore you.

What's your skin in this game? This person was a cold blooded killer who got what he deserved. He made life miserable for millions of people. including the Palestinians. Are you among his supporters? If so, then you are not worth my time.

 

Aren't those Hamas all over the place and replaceable?

 

Israel is determined to get every country in the middle east into a war with them hoping that will force the US to send their soldiers to die. Israel hated that the new Iranian president stated that he wants to get on friendlier terms with the west and they hated that the man they murdered was in the process of getting a peace treaty in place. Israel hate the fact that their stated aim of removing Hamas has failed. In the last few days Israel has bombed Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq and Iran

 

Wrong on all counts. Iran started this to prevent Saudi Arabia from signing a peace treaty with Israel. The Abraham Accords were doing wonders in the Middle East, but Trump was defeated.

If you want to find a war monger in the Middle East, look no further than Iran. The kick in the pants is the Biden administration has helped to fund their policies.

 

What do you want sourced exactly, bob?
