Iran says that ISIS attacks are the financial responsibility (fault) of the USG, Pres. Obama, Pres. Bush, CENTCOM, the CIA, Treasury, Lockheed Martin, and American Airlines.  Good luck on collecting.  “Iran court orders US, Obama to pay $313m for ‘terrorist’ attacks,” Al Jazeera, 4-26-23.

“Ayatollah Abbasali Soleimani died in hospital after being shot at a bank in Babolsar, in Mazandaran province. Its governor said the attacker, who has been arrested, was a bank security guard and that the motive was unclear. Ayatollah Soleimani was one of 88 clerics on the Assembly of Experts, which appoints the Supreme Leader. The elected body also monitors his performance and can – theoretically – remove him if he is deemed incapable of fulfilling his duties.”  See “Iran: Senior Shia cleric on Assembly of Experts shot dead at bank,” BBC, 4-26-23.  If this was truly an assassination (and not a bank job gone bad), it is a serious matter to have a member of the Assembly killed.
