Iran is plotting to kill or capture Donald Trump and his former secretary of state Mike Pompeo, according to a leaked US government intelligence report.
The Middle East nation is seeking to avenge the United States for the death of Major General Qassim Soleimani, a powerful Iranian commander, at the hands of a US drone strike two years ago.
The astonishing claim came from the latest National Counterterrorism Centre report that said the Iranian regime is "waging a multi-pronged campaign against select US officials".
It said this includes threats of lethal action, international legal manoeuvring, and the issuance of Iranian arrest warrants and sanctions..

Someone said he's fundraising off this...
And might I add this random meme for no particular reason

Yes, it's mean. I'm mean.

To me it's really about him fundraising off it, most likely leaking it himself AND I wanted to use that meme.

but I was really looking forward to that.
On the downside, it would make him a martyr in the cult's eyes.

terminate him with extreme prejudice, I hope it's the Proud Boys or the Oaf Creepers or just some head case who's mad because they think he's not crazy enough.That might reduce the martyrdom problem somewhat.

works for me.
Or, in the sad case of a state funeral, what happened to Khameini in his coffin.
Either way is fine.
