FBI Thwarts Iranian Murder-for-hire Plan Targeting Donald Trump by Botragelad(op): 6:49pm On Nov 08, 2024
The Justice Department has unsealed criminal charges in a thwarted Iranian plot to kill President-elect Donald Trump before this week’s presidential election

A criminal complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan alleges that an unnamed official in Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard instructed a contact this past September to put together a plan to surveil and ultimately kill Trump.

If the man, identified as Farjad Shakeri, was unable to create a plan by then, the complaint said, the official told him Iran would pause its plan until after the presidential election because the official believed Trump would lose and it would be easier to assassinate him then, the complaint said.


Shakeri told the FBI he didn’t plan to propose a plan to murder Trump within the seven days the official had requested, according to the complaint.

The plot, with the charges unsealed just days after Trump's defeat of Democrat Kamala Harris, reflects what federal officials have described as ongoing efforts by Iran to target U.S. government officials, including Trump, on U.S. soil.

No wonder, their currency lost value immediately Trump was declared the winner of the US presidential election. Meaning that they are falling without anybody fighting them. There is no peace for the wicked.

Exactly


Just like the popular South Western Proverbs-- "A dog destined to get missing will never hear the hunters whistle"

Ayatollah is seriously looking for death. He just wants to reunite with Soleimani, Hanniyeh and other terrorists by all means.

Putin is back to ruling America by proxy...thru the Republicans grin grin grin

I'm just sad that once the war in Europe is ended...the Trans-Sahara Gas Pipeline project will most likely also stop, halting Nigeria's potential to sell gas to Europe and increase our geopolitical power.

Stupid talk.

Why will they still allegedly need to kill him if he lost?
Re: FBI Thwarts Iranian Murder-for-hire Plan Targeting Donald Trump by faceland: 7:14pm On Nov 08, 2024
If you are really an enemy of USA, then you want TrUmp as president. He would end up isolating USA. Even EU would soon start considering another option than the almighty dollar.

Think long term effect. Of cause he would level Gaza now but what about 10 years from now?
Re: FBI Thwarts Iranian Murder-for-hire Plan Targeting Donald Trump by KnowledgePower7: 7:14pm On Nov 08, 2024
So Iran wanted to kill Donald Trump 7 days before the election.

But they stopped.

They wanted to wait till he lose the election.
Iran believed that Trump will lose the election
And will have little immunity then they will kill him.

Now Trump has won grin grin
Meaning his Security is now 10 times strong

Iran no get sense
Too much head slamming no good grin

So many forces were against trump leading up to the election

Political Witch hunt from the justice system, constant character assassination from the main lame stream media, two assassination attempts, you name it...

But as the chosen One of God, he survived it all and kept on fighting

Today, he is singing the Victory song
