Iran's Cyber Warfare Commander Assassinated

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Mere days after the US and Iran showed very tentative signs of some diplomatic progress being possible (and hours after Netanyahu's "Rouhani's a wolf in sheep's clothing" comments), The Telegraph reports that Mojtaba Ahmadi, who served as commander of the Cyber War Headquarters for Iran, was found dead (with two bullets to the heart) in a wooded area north-west of Tehran. This follows the assassination of five Iranian nuclear scientists and the country's ballistic missile program head since 2007 - all blamed on Israel's Mossad. An eyewitness said two people on a motorbike had been involved and "the extent of the injuries indicated he had been assassinated from close range." Western officials (the 'essential' ones) said the information was still being assessed.

Via The Telegraph,

Mojtaba Ahmadi, who served as commander of the Cyber War Headquarters, was found dead in a wooded area near the town of Karaj, north-west of the capital, Tehran.

 

...

 

Ahmadi was last seen leaving his home for work on Saturday. He was later found with two bullets in the heart, according to Alborz, a website linked to the Revolutionary Guard Corps. “I could see two bullet wounds on his body and the extent of his injuries indicated that he had been assassinated from a close range with a pistol,” an eyewitness told the website.

 

The commander of the local police said that two people on a motorbike had been involved in the assassination.

 

...

 

the Imam Hassan Mojtaba division of the Revolutionary Guard Corps said that Ahmadi’s death was being investigated. It warned against speculating “prematurely about the identity of those responsible for the killing”.

 

Western officials said the information was still being assessed...

 

The last victim of a known assassination was Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, a chemist who worked in the uranium enrichment plant at Natanz, who died when an explosive device blew up on his car in January last year.

 

The death of Ahmadi, a leading specialist in cyber defences, could be an extension of this campaign of subterfuge. Iran has been accused of carrying out a number of cyber attacks detected in the West.

Recall what Russia's Foreign Minister said ealier today: "Al-Qaeda-linked militants in Syria recently got shipments of components for chemical weapons, increasing likelihood of more provocations, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says in Moscow after talks with his Indian counterpart, Salman Khurshid." We didn't have long to wait.

The Saudis aren't Arabs anyway, they are descendents of a "chosen tribe".  

You know, the chosen tribes that have caused havoc for thousands of years no matter where they settled. 

Anyway, Saudi is an installed puppet that oppresses its own people under the protection of the US War Machine.  

I only hope that the people of the USA will reclaim their Governement and Armed Forces from the nasty bastards and their AIPAC + Big Oil cohorts.

On that note it begs the question who in Saudi intelligence is running the show these days.

Thierry Meysson was the journalist who broke the story on Bandar Bin Sultan's demise over a year ago, yet we hear about his trips abroad in the last few months but ironically he hasn't been seen.

Each of the more significant meetings with Putin took place but no cameras and all the pictures of Bandar are stock from two years ago.

So the question is. Does anyone have the goods on his whereabouts and if he is dead who's running the show for him?  If the journalists didn't spot him in his meeting with Putin the most obvious next question to ask Vladimir on his next diplomatic journey.

It is a non-descript way to carry something out, I do not care who does the carrying. If you use a car, they can identify the make and model, etc. Perhaps get the plate too. A motorbike with a couple of guys on it is just a motorbike. Half of it is hidden by the riders. It can go places that a car won't fit and it is easy to hide. No small wonder everyone on all sides uses this. The only guys who didn't were the drug guys in Mexico. But they owned most of the police anyway. Shit half of them WERE police.

Greenwald, Scahill vow to unmask NSA’s ‘US assassination program’

Published time: September 29, 2013 20:31 


 

American investigative journalists Jeremy Scahill and Glenn Greenwald say they have teamed up to prepare a report on the National Security Agency's role in what one of them described as the "US assassination program."

“The connections between war and surveillance are clear. I don't want to give too much away but Glenn and I are working on a project right now that has at its center how the National Security Agency plays a significant, central role in the US assassination program,” Scahill said in Rio de Janeiro, as cited by Associated Press.   

Speaking to moviegoers at the Rio Film Festival, where an award-winning documentary based on his book was shown, Scahill said he will be working on the project with another journalist - Glenn Greenwald, who broke the story on the NSA leaker Edward Snowden in June. 

The journalists – who were both present at the festival’s Q&A panel – were short on details for their new project and gave no evidence of the alleged US program. 

“There are so many stories that are yet to be published that we hope will produce 'actionable intelligence,' or information that ordinary citizens across the world can use to try to fight for change, to try to confront those in power,” said Scahill, a contributor to The Nation magazine and the author of the bestseller 'Dirty Wars: The World Is a Battlefield'.

Each Year Billions of American Hard Working Tax Dollars Go to Funding a Warmonger in Warmonger Clothing! It Must End!
-
by Johnny Punish

In the wake of last week’s Obama/Rouhani telephone call in which U.S. and Iranian President began a dialogue ending with both expressing confidence that diplomatic ties can begin to grow, the incessant and objectionable Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu immediately launched into a campaign to thwart the diplomacy and return back to the war mongering disposition to get the USA to attack Iran on its behalf killing millions of destroying further what’s left of the credibility of the USA."..

How Will The Yuan Being Used For Oil Purchases Impact The U.S?

On September 6th, China announcemend that their banking system, communications, and transfer systems were all ready to make oil trades, and that if any nation out there wishes to do so, they could trade using the Yuan rather than the U.S. dollar. Since that date, we have seen the dollar fall from 81.467 to 79.73. To further complicate the matter, on September 7th, China made an agreement with Russia, where Russia agreed to sell China as much oil as they desire without any limitations and they will only sell oil using the Yuan, not the dollar.

It has begun...

It's true. If he was a traitor, his obviously 'Israeli' assassination would make others think twice about going to the US/Israel... they might get offed the same way. And everyone else in Iran gets their (justified) loathing of Israel beefed up... what's not to like?

However, a cigar could just be a cigar, and he was offed by Mossad like the others... to weaken the regime's technical abilities, and to throw some sand into any peace initiatives between the US and Iran.

Interesting observation here 'Solarman'. With the way we've been strung along I don't discount anything anymore like what you speak of as an explanation.  I'm sure there have been plenty of bribes back and forth since the Revolution and they probably tell many interesting stories that we previously wouldn't have bought.

Just like the state of Israel trying to bribe Iranian Jewery to leave there homeland as a PR stunt to bring them to Tel Aviv.  This one is well known and documented but you certainly won't see it on the front page of the NYT and Wa-Po.

No fan of Israel, here. No fan of Obummer either. But I have to say: Good. The extraordinarily weird leaning of the press right now is to pretend that the Iranian leadership are somehow "good guys". That is the most fucked up, backward reading of reality that I can possibly imagine. As much as I would love to see justice on this Earth, justice does not look like the most oppressive, backwards-ass, human-rights violating assholes portrayed as "nice guys". Fuck Iran. Not the Iranian people,mind you -- who have some erudite, peaceful motherfuckers in their ranks. But the Iranian government is evil to the core and oppress their own people in unspeakable ways. The Iranian people have zero freedom of speech. Zero constitutional protections from government. Zero personal freedoms. Zero rights other than a backwards ass 12th century codex of laws. Fuck the mullahs. Fuck the pretend democracy over there. And fuck the notion that we're violating their rights. Those people dream of civil rights like we have (even though ours are evaporating quickly). The world is not Boolean. When we fuck up and go too far, it does not make the other guys "good guys". No. They still suck.

What are "we" doing in Iran?

How does that compare to say, executing teenage girls for spending the night with her boyfriends by partially burying them in a hole in the ground and throwing rocks at their heads until they die of internal bleeding. Or disappearing journalists and torturing them to death?

You said you could make a comparison. So do it.

If you were to take look at the "friendly" gulf states i think you would find a much stronger brand of assbackwardness. And "And fuck the notion that we're violating their rights" Again if you had a peek you might find a few tiny violations, such as coups, assassinations, sabotage, terror, destabilisation and more. Things that a country that havent got a double-barreled shotgun with a hair-trigger pointed at it's head might take offence to. No love for the mullas, but i have no love for ww3 either.

The Mossad has really gone downhill.    Why didn't they give him a little "enhanced interrogation" (ie near drowning in a bathtub) followed by real drowning in a nearby river?  Like the did with William Colby.   Plausible deniability.   It all gets blamed on a boating accident. 

And does anybody but me find it strange the number of high ranking military officers being fired for trivial things like (gasp) gambling?

Ministry - So What

"You have had all that money can give you, but that wasn't
enough. You became a thrill-seeker. Kill for the thrill.
(assassin) This thrill-seeking became the one great thing in
your life, planning one thrill on another until the murder. Kill
for the love of killing. (guilty) Kill for the thrill. The
thrill-seeker comes from all walks of life. He comes from the
home, a home where the parents are too busy to treat their children

This absolute proof that the Iranians are the good guys and the US and Israel are the bad guys. If Iran was the bad guy then you would be seeing international bankers and Iraeli politicians being assassinated by the truckload. The Iranians have refrained... so they are good. The US and Israelis have been murdering key Iranian people, so they are clearly the evil ones.

But the bankers just want to make an honest living, and receive reasonable compensation to justify the risk they assume for promoting growth and properity in America and around the world. They are misunderstood. Compound Interest is what America is all about. It's why we have been successful. If our banks aren't healthy -America cannot be healthy. I can't imagine why the bankers and Jews have been persecuted for so long. It makes no sense. As the often misunderstood (and unappreciated) as Lloyd Blankfein has said   -they are doing God's work. Jesus kicked the Pharisees and moneylenders out of the Temple because he knew the bankers needed to charge a reasonable rate of interest for God's people to survive and thrive -  and the interest rates charged at that time were not sufficient for the jews to raise enough cash to defeat the Romans. They didn't have QE infinity back then  -then Goddam Romans were in charge and those assholes were on the gold standard  -idiots.

Looks like the days of being 'subtle' are gone for the Moxxad.  They used to be 'sophisticated'.

E.g., Germany's "JFK" = the Uwe Barschel Affair, that tied a top German politician to the Iran Contra times, the Mossad, etc.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uwe_Barschel

On the last day of his life Uwe spoke to 3 people:  His wife, his lawyer and his brother Eike.  He'd deny it now/publicly, but some years ago Eike was 99% certain that the Moxxad was behind it.  Uwe was not the kind of guy to commit suicide, nor to hold his hand & arm on his chest in a Napoleon manner.  The body language of the corpse said:  "This is what we do to 'little Napoleons' who cross or threaten us".

Yes, actually, I do.

Were a genie in a magic lamp to manifest right now, I'd wish for every nuclear weapon in the world to be put into a pool and divided equally, amongst every country in the world, along with a small corps of knowledgeable folks to take care of them in each.

You know why?

a) Anyone who's already done it can do it again in short order. So no use wishing for them all to dissapear.

b) Because there are least 40 countries that have the '2 week latent ability' to make nukes any time they fancy the idea and about another 20 that could do it given a year or so. It's really not very hard because every silly fucker that has already done it has leaked pages of 'Nukes For Dummies' since day one. Give me the materials and tooling and I'm 60-70% confident that I could build a very crude, horribly wasteful and fallout producing one in a year or two. I'm not a nuclear weapons engineer, nor a nuclear physicist, but I have enough familiarity with the principles to work it out. Engineering is engineering, so long as you can do math and have a grasp of the fundamental principles. Your average country has rather more in terms of resources and expertise than I could muster on my own!

c) The ONLY way to ensure a relatively peaceful world is to make it impossible to attack anyone else without severe repercussions. Easy enough to attack Ghana (or whoever) if they can only fight back with AK47s, bad language and fruit. Different proposition if they have 40-odd nukes on even 300 mile range launchers.

Most people don't know that John Kennedy was the last President to say an effective 'no' to the international banking dynasty Rothschild's creation, modern Israel. He refused their request to make nuclear weapons. And we all know what happened to him...

Zionists got their nuclear weapons, and the Israeli who exposed their illegal nuclear program still languishes in  Israel, a prisoner of the state, long after his original prison sentence. Another example of ruthless, lawless Zionism.

Israel refuses to allow him to renounce his citizenship, and move abroad, or move freely anywhere, even on the internet.

Free Mordechai Vanunu!

I don't hate Israel. Far from it. Acquaint yourself with the name Mordechai Vanunu, an Israeli. He still languishes in Israel, a prisoner of the state, long after his original sentence, contrary to all international law and common decency. Why?

He revealed Israel's illegal nuclear program to a British newspaper, owned by zionist Murdoch, the Sunday Times. He was then lured to Paris, and kidnapped. Another flagrant intrusion on a sovereign state by the lawless modern day Rothschild Zionist Israel which does not represent the best interests of ordinary jews, nor anyone else, but simply serves the sociopathic mind of inbred moneychangers, mostly residing in London, Paris, Brussels, Switzerland and New York.

If you love Israel, then insist that all Zionists live in Israel and bear the full consequences of their actions, instead of using ordinary jews as body bags and tax machines.

Zionism is a supremacist military political entity, the creation of the world's pre-eminent inbred banking dynasties, led by Rothschilds.

Judaism is a religion. Jews and other semites share a culture, and a region called the Middle East. For example, whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu was born into a Sephardic jew family, and his father was a rabbi. Vanunu later converted to Christianity.

Even most American jews are unaware of these distinctions, it seems. I guess that's why the slur anti-semite has power, and frightens ordinary jews of European and British descent into the Zionist slaughter house.

Authors Dan Raviv and Yossi Melman in their book Spies against Armageddon: Inside Israel’s Secret Wars state that the notorious spy agency has killed at least four Iranian nuclear scientists, including targeting them with operatives on motorcycles, an assassination technique used by the elite killers at Kidon.

The Kidon killers “excel at accurate shooting at any speed and staying steady to shoot and to place exquisitely shaped sticky bombs” and consider it their hallmark.

Kidon, known to be one of the world’s most efficient killing machines, is technically described as a little Mossad within Mossad.

Tasked with carrying out covert ops across the world, Kidon has embarked on a number of black ops and assassinations in different countries.

Murky business where Israel and their neighbors fight, using the U.S. taxpayer for most of their money and weapons, as CONgress has sworn to give Israel military superiority spending power in the region, and weirdly also backs alQaeda. All this unconstitutional, and contrary to the wishes of most Americans.

So, what's the one link in all this? The un-Federal no-Reserve Board, privately owned, led by arch Zionist Rothschilds, the major founders and funders of the modern Israel whose flag bears their emblem, contrary to the wish of orthodox jews who rejected the first Zionist Congress being held in Germany, so it was held in Basle, Switzerland, now home of the central bankers' central bank, the BIS.

And we all know what happened to the jews in Germany ...

Same as will happen to Americans if this Zionist supremacy plot rages on, with our blood and treasure.
