Iran Threatens Netanyahu and Other Israeli Politicians, Military Officials With Assassination
IDF eliminates Hamas terrorist, Anas Al-Sharif, who posed as “Al Jazeera Journalist.”
Despite agreeing to a U.S.-backed ceasefire in late June, the Iranian regime has published a list of senior Israeli politicians and military officials marked for assassination. The Iranian hit list includes Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Israel Katz, and the top generals of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
“Iran published on Monday an assassination list targeting senior Israeli political and security officials,” the Israel Hayom newspaper reported.
Israel won’t sit idly by if Tehran tries to target its elected leaders and military officials, Defense Minister Israel Katz warned. “I suggest that Iranian dictator Khamenei, when he comes out of his bunker, look up at the sky and listen carefully to every buzzing sound,” Katz wrote in Hebrew on X, referring to Israel’s domination of Iranian airspace during the recently concluded 12-day war.
In his warning, the defense minister also referred to the Operation “Red Wedding,” which led to the elimination of Iran’s top military command in the early phase of Israeli aerial strikes in mid-June.
“In his tweet, Katz tells Khamenei that “participants of the ‘Red Wedding’ are waiting for him,” referencing a large-scale Israeli surprise attack in the opening hours of the war on June 13, in which some 30 senior military commanders, including the three most senior generals, were killed in near-simultaneous strikes in the Iranian capital, crippling Iran’s command and control and delaying its response for nearly 24 hours.” The Times of Israel reported.
איראן מפרסמת את רשימת הבכירים בצמרת המדינית ביטחונית בישראל המיועדים לחיסול.
אני מציע לדיקטטור האיראני חמינאי שכשהוא יוצא מהבונקר שירים מידי פעם מבט לשמיים ויקשיב טוב לכל זמזום.

It is worth noting that while the Iranian regime openly publicizes its intention to murder Israel’s political and military leadership, Jerusalem was reportedly restrained by the U.S. from eliminating Iran’s dictator, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, during the 12-day war fought between June 13-14, 2024.
“President Trump opposed a recent Israeli plan to kill Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,” CBS News reported June 16. “The Israelis had the opportunity to assassinate Khamenei and Mr. Trump conveyed to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that it wasn’t a good idea,” the broadcaster reported, quoting U.S. officials.
IDF eliminates Hamas terrorist, Anas Al-Sharif, who posed as ‘Al Jazeera Journalist’
Mainstream media, the United Nations, and all the other usual suspects feigned ‘outrage’ after the Israeli military on Sunday killed another Hamas terrorist posing as a journalist. A known Hamas terrorist and Al Jazeera “reporter,” Anas Al-Sharif, and his four associates were eliminated in an Israeli strike in northern Gaza.
Al-Sharif was a Hamas terrorist who “posed as a journalist for the Al Jazeera network,” the IDF disclosed Sunday. He was head of a Hamas terror cell and directed rocket strikes on Israeli towns and cities, the IDF confirmed on X. Social media posts show him palling around with Hamas’s top leadership and celebrating the October 7 massacre.

“Anas Al-Sharif served as the head of a terrorist cell in the Hamas terrorist organization and was responsible for advancing rocket attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF troops,” the IDF said in a statement on Sunday.
Al-Sharif’s ties to Hamas had long been established by the Israeli security services based on Hamas documents seized from Gaza. “The IDF had previously disclosed intelligence information and many documents found in the Gaza Strip, confirming his military affiliation with Hamas. The documents once again confirm his involvement in terrorist activities, from which the Al Jazeera network has attempted to disassociate itself,” the Israeli military revealed. “The documents include personnel rosters, lists of terrorist training courses, phone directories, and salary documents for the terrorist, and provide unequivocal proof that he serves as a military terrorist in Hamas in the Gaza Strip.”
“The documents also provide proof of the integration of the Hamas terrorist within the Qatari Al Jazeera network, the IDF observed. In October 2024, Legal Insurrection documented the Qatari state-funded broadcaster Al Jazeera‘s deep ties to Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist groups.

Mainstream media outlets such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, and CNN carried stories depicting the known terrorist as a journalist. “Global outrage mounts as funeral held for five journalists killed by Israel,” the British daily Guardian claimed Monday.
The UN also jumped on the anti-Israel bandwagon. “The UN’s human rights office has condemned a targeted Israeli attack that killed six journalists in Gaza, calling it a “grave breach” of international law,” the BBC reported. “The BBC understands Sharif worked for a Hamas media team in Gaza before the current conflict.”
Feel-good story of the day.

This is different from the status quo how? I’m pretty sure they’ve been trying since 1979.
How about destroying one of their three largest hydroelectric dams?
I was about to say; isn’t this new plan the same as the old plan? A plan that hasn’t really worked out for them over the years.
Surely they realize that the first assassination that is successful would cause the IDF to do away with any semblance of restraint and once that happens there will be no stopping them, by anyone. By the time anyone could marshal a force to intervene Gaza’s average sea level would be a couple of inches lower.
“Iran Threatens Netanyahu and Other Israeli Politicians, Military Officials With Assassination”
Oh… you pager-packing pussies think you want to go THERE?
Must be a day ending in “d-a-y”.
How did you know? You must be an oracle.
Riddle: what is a sagebrush?
Answer: a grooming implement for an oracle.
/be sure to tip your waitress.
You make me smile.
I’m glad I do. I know my jokes on here at times be tiresome, but I try to brighten people‘s day.
Not mine.
You just reminded me I promised DW to prune the driveway sagebrush.
Good on the “journalist” hit.
Does anyone in the world arena not recognize that threatening to assassinate leaders of a country is an act of war unto itself?
Boy, they just don’t learn.
then israel best strike first and make it last
Are you suggesting giving Iran a free nuke?
and we have left wing “journalists that are actually dnc pond scum
Perhaps its time to start targeting Iranian clergy and political leaders. They’ve left them alone mostly up to know but if Iran wants to target Israeli politicians, well two can play that same game.
Drones programmed to seek and destroy mullahs.
Israel has perfected the goat-seeking missile?
Iran needs to be bombed, then bombed again, and bombed some more, until it is flat and level. Then truck in a bunch of topsoil and turn it into the world’s largest soccer complex.
“The Israelis had the opportunity to assassinate Khamenei and Mr. Trump conveyed to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that it wasn’t a good idea,”
Sounds like a great idea to me, but whuddu I know.
Israel has the art of assassination mastered, they just need to use it more liberally.
Fortunately Iran is weak enough that BDS is Israel’s existential threat not Iran, and unfortunately Netanyahu is trying to lose to that threat.
If Netanyahu has any desire for Israel to exist he will either start operations to clear out Hamas immediately or end the war immediately.
BDS is gaining ground IN AMERICA.
It is the mainstream of Europe outside of Hungary and Czechia, and is while not dominant certainly gaining in a lot of more natural allies to Israel like Greece and Lithuania.
The entire list of allies outside of the West Israel has is India for so long as Modi’s Party rules it.
The war is destroying Israel. I don’t know if Netanyahu cares but the Israeli left says give up the war to try and start rebuilding the reputation in the west and at least try to prevent ourselves from becoming South Africa.
At least the Israeli left understands the binary is victory or defeat and the decision needs to be taken now if Israel is to survive.
As a follow up the only thing the IDF has done since Netanyahu said for the trillionth time he was going to try to win this time is the same targeted strike of a military target with no results to show for it because Hamas doesn’t give a dam about casualties, has an unlimited pool of manpower, and seeks martyrdom anyway.
Because they aren’t leaving the choice is ground forces or end the war. There is a binary of victory or defeat.
If of course the agenda is victory for BDS the war should continue exactly as it is.
If you want Israel to exist in ten years either a decisive victory through ground forces and occupation or ending the war and desperately seeking forgiveness.
There is no third option.
Exactly. You are 100% right.
This is why you finish the job.
Israel and the US are just going to end up having to go to war with Iran yet again to do what ought to have been done this time: destroy the current regime and its principal supporters entirely.
They’ve made assassination threats against President Trump and other US officials also. And the Iranian legislature and administration both made it clear – after we bombed them – that they were determined to resume their nuclear program.
They’ve also continued their support of their proxies that are actively attacking US, Israeli, and many other countries civilians and military targets as well.
Trump talked about this after his first election. He said his first briefing consisted of details on 18 conflicts in as many countries where US soldiers were fighting. He said that all 18 of those conflicts were initiated by Iran.
Once the decision was made to attack Iran, it was insanely stupid to NOT destroy the regime itself. Not just the top leaders, the most important of whom were spared, but also its principal supporters. Starting with the IRGC. Everyone understands that the opposition to the regime is substantial enough to then establish a new government that would be very different. On multiple occasions in recent years, they’ve come close to toppling the regime without outside help (if they’d received such help, they might well have succeeded).
