Israel says it killed 2 top Iranian security officials in a blow to Tehran’s leadership

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Israel said Tuesday it killed two senior Iranian security officials in overnight strikes in a major blow to the country’s leadership. Tehran defiantly fired new salvos of missiles and drones at its Gulf Arab neighbors and Israel in a war that showed no signs of abating.

Ali Larijani, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, and Gen. Gholam Reza Soleimani,the head of the Revolutionary Guard’s all-volunteer Basij force, were “eliminated last night,” Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said. Following the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in an airstrike on the first day of the war, Larijani was considered one of the most powerful figures in the country.

Both men were key to Iran’s violent crackdown on protests in January that challenged the theocracy’s 47-year rule. Iranian state media did not immediately confirm either death. The killings would strip Iran of important leaders as the Islamic Republic faces its greatest test in recent decades in its war with the United States and Israel.

With concerns growing about a global energy crisis, Iran fired new attacks at several of its Gulf Arab neighbors and oil infrastructure throughout the region. Dubai, a major transit hub for international travel, briefly shut its airspace, the second disruption to flights in the city in as many days. An Iranian official defiantly said Tehran had no intention of relinquishing its tight grip on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway for oil.

The Israeli military also said it had begun a “wide-scale wave of strikes” across Iran’s capital and was stepping up strikes on Iran-backed Hezbollah militants in Lebanon.

Larijani hails from one of Iran’s most famous political families. A former parliamentary speaker and senior policy adviser, he was appointed to advise the late Khamenei on strategy in nuclear talks with the Trump administration.

Larijani was sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury in January as Tehran violently suppressed nationwide protests. It identified him as being “responsible for coordinating the response to the protests on behalf of the supreme leader of Iran.”

Soleimani has also been sanctioned by the U.S., as well as the European Union and other nations over his role in helping suppress dissent for years through the Basij.

Lawyers Promise ‘Nuremberg Trials’ Against All Behind COVID Scam

Written by Jean-Michel Grau onFebruary 24, 2021. Posted in Current News

Right now, a second Nuremberg tribunal that is in preparation,with a class action lawsuit being set up under the aegis of thousands of lawyers worldwide behind the American-German lawyer Reiner Fuellmich,who is prosecuting those responsible for the Covid-19 scandal manipulated by the Davos Forum.

In this respect, it is worth recalling that Reiner Fuellmich is the lawyer who succeeded in condemning the automobile giant Volkswagen in the case of the tampered catalytic converters. And it is this same lawyer who succeeded in condemning Deutsche Bank as a criminal enterprise.

According to Reiner Fuellmich,all the frauds committed by German companies are derisory compared to the damage that the Covid-19 crisis has caused and continues to cause. This Covid-19 crisis should be renamed the “Covid-19 Scandal” and all those responsible should be prosecuted for civil damages due to manipulations and falsified test protocols. Therefore, an international network of business lawyers will plead the biggest tort case of all time, the Covid-19 fraud scandal, which has meanwhile turned into the biggest crime against humanity ever committed.

A Covid-19 commission of enquiry has been set up on the initiative of a group of German lawyers with the aim of bringing an international class action lawsuit using Anglo-Saxon law.

Here is the summarized translation of the last communication of Dr. Fuellmich of 15/02/2021:

“The hearings of around 100 internationally renowned scientists, doctors, economists and lawyers, which have been conducted by the Berlin Commission of Inquiry into the Covid-19 affair since 10.07.2020, have in the meantime shown with a probability close to certainty that the Covid- 19 scandal was at no time a health issue. Rather,it was about solidifying the illegitimate power (illegitimate because it was obtained by criminal methods) of the corrupt “Davos clique” by transferring the wealth of the people to the members of the Davos clique, destroying, among other things, small and medium-sized enterprises in particular. Platforms such as Amazon, Google, Uber, etc. could thus appropriate their market share and wealth.”

Status of the Covid-19 Committee investigation

a.Covid-19 as a diversionary tactic by corporate and political “elites” in order to shift market share and wealth from small and medium enterprises to global platforms such as Amazon, Google, Uber, etc.

b. Contribution of the Audiovisual Tax to the reconstruction of a new media landscape that offers truly independent information

c. Making regional agricultural structures secure

d.Making a secure regional currency to prevent a new currency from coming “from above” to be allocated in the event of good behaviour.

e.Psychological considerations of the situation: how did it come about?

Actions for annulment of the approval of a vaccination, filed against the European Commission, trial in New York of the status of PCR tests, German trials, Canadian trials, Australian trials, Austrian trials, trials at the International Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights.

“We have seen what has been confirmed time and time again: the degree of danger posed by the virus is about the same as that of seasonal flu, regardless of whether it is a new virus (wholly or partially manufactured) orwhether we are simply dealing with a flu renamed “Covid-19 pandemic”. In the meantime, Drosten’s PCR tests cannot even tell us anything about contagious infections. To make matters worse, the health and economic damage caused by anti-covid measures has been so devastating that we have to speak of a level of destruction that is historically unique. »

“The fact that health has never been an issue is particularly obvious, except that injections of genetically experimental substances disguised as “vaccinations”are now cauing serious damage, including fatal consequences, on a mass scale. The world population has been used as guinea pigs for these experimental gene injections both gradually and extremely rapidly. In order to plunge the population into panic, dangerous and harmful containment measures (even according to the WHO) of compulsory, unnecessary and dangerous mask-wearing and social distancing, unnecessary and counterproductive, were introduced. The population was thus “ready” for the injections.”

“In the meantime, more and more people, not just lawyers – and rightly so – are demanding, in addition to an immediate end to these murderous measures, a judicial review by a truly independent international tribunal on the model of the Nuremberg trials. An example of such a demand and a moving excerpt from a speech by the English doctor Dr. Vernon Coleman can be found at the following

In addition,an interview with a whistleblower at a Berlin nursing home shows that out of 31 people vaccinated there, some of them by force, in the presence of Bundeswehr soldiers, and who tested negative before the vaccination, 8 have now died and 11 are subject to serious side effects.”

In regards to the post and article:

==A couple of years ago the bakers a anons had a discussion of just posting “just title and link”. Many anons agreed this was a NOT a full posting because anons then have to do the work, finding the full article to post on the board.

I’m sure many anons agree that a post like this is notable because there is no context of info.Plus if there is no date posted, it may have been posted before, or out of date.

Just my two cents, anons should post at least 2-3 paragraphs and date so anons can choose if they want to spend time on it.

Israel says it has killed the head of Iran’s Basij force

BY JON GAMBRELL 3/17/26

The Israeli military said Tuesday it killed Gen. Gholam Reza Soleimani in a strike on Monday.

Iran did not immediately acknowledge Soleimani’s killing.

The all-volunteer force of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard is used to suppress demonstrations in the country.

“The Basij forces are part of the armed apparatus of the Iranian terror regime,” the Israeli military said in its statement. “During internal protests in Iran, particularly in recent periods as demonstrations intensified, Basij forces under Soleimani’s command led the main repression operations, employing severe violence, widespread arrests, and the use of force against civilian demonstrators.”

The U.S. Treasury listed Soleimani’s birth year as 1965. He has been sanctioned by the U.S., the European Union and other nationsover his role in helping suppress dissent for years through the Basij.

“The Basij organizationused lethal force to suppress the November 2019 protests in Iran, causing the deaths of and injuries to unarmed protesters and other civilians in many cities across the country,” the EU said in sanctioning him. “As head of the Basij organization, Gholamreza Soleimani bears responsibility for the violent suppression of the protests and serious human rights violations in Iran.”

Since the war began Feb. 28, Israel has launched specific attacks targeting Iran’s leadership, killing 86-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other military commanders.

Killing Soleimani likely could further strain the command and control of the Basij, which would be crucial in putting down any uprising against the theocracy.

‘The guy’s a piece of s–t’: SBF’s pardon push falls flat in Congress

Sam Bankman-Fried, who was convicted in 2023 on fraud charges after his FTX crypto exchange collapsed, has been heaping praise on President Donald Trump.

3/16/26

Cryptocurrency supporters in Washington have spent the last four years working to rinse the stench of Sam Bankman-Fried off of legislative efforts that could legitimize digital assets.

Now, as the convicted former crypto tycoon publicly vies for a pardon, the industry’s leading cheerleaders in Congress are urging President Donald Trump not to take the bait.

Bankman-Fried, who was convicted in 2023on fraud charges after his FTX crypto exchange collapsed,has been heaping praise on Trumpand claiming on social media in recent months that his exchange was solvent —apparently part of a brazen campaign to win a pardon from the president.

Crypto supporters aren’t buying it.

“The guy’s a piece of shit,” said Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio), a longtime crypto enthusiast who has championed industry-friendly legislation. “The guy shouldn’t be pardoned. The guy should go to jail for a long, long time.”

On X, Bankman-Fried’s account has laudedthe Trump administration’s drug pricing initiative, praised his management of the economy and touted the president as a savior for the crypto sector. The one-time crypto wunderkind has also sat for a jailhouse interview with Tucker Carlson. He has blamed his conviction on “Biden’s lawfare machine,” likening it to the Justice Department’s indictments of Trump after he left office the first time.

(The X posts are “SBF’s words” but posted “through a proxy,” according to the account’s biography, which says he can use Bureau of Prisons-approved “phone calls / emails to tell others what to post on our socials.”)

None of it is winning him any favor among Trump allies on Capitol Hill.

“I hope the president doesn’t fall for that,” said Sen. Cynthia Lummis, a Wyoming Republican who’s been dubbed the Senate’s “crypto queen.” “He hurt a lot of people. He should have to spend some time contemplating that.”

Rep. Mike Flood of Nebraska, an up-and-coming Republican on the House Financial Services Committee, was taken aback when told about Bankman-Fried’s campaign.

“He crashed the car, man. He engaged in massive fraud,” he said. “Wall Street’s not needing him back to fix any problems. He helped us identify a problem by committing a massive amount of fraud — and we rewarded him with a long stay in a federal prison.”

Lawyers representing Bankman-Fried did not respond to a request for comment.

The brazen pardon push remains a long-shot:Trump told The New York Times in January that he does not plan to pardon Bankman-Fried, and there is nothing to suggest his position has changed. But the effort comes after an array of white-collar criminals have won pardons from Trump — some after waging high-dollar influence campaigns. The White House did not respond to a request for comment about a potential pardon.

Democrats have seized on Trump’s use of the pardon power as corrupt. Asked about the possibility of an SBF pardon, Rep. Sam Liccardo, a crypto-friendly California Democrat, said that “precedent has amply demonstrated that if Sam Bankman-Fried or his friends commit to donate a sufficiently large plaque in the new White House ballroom, he will get pardoned.”

Trump has also pardoned several controversial figures in the crypto world, including Changpeng Zhao, the former CEO of the crypto exchange Binance, who pleaded guilty in 2023 to money laundering-related charges. On his second day in office, he fulfilled a campaign promise to free Ross Ulbricht, the founder of an online illegal marketplace known as Silk Road.

He faced little pushback from his own party for those moves.But Republicans see any link to SBF, whose crimes helped crash the crypto market and became synonymous with the risks associated with the industry, as a threat to their digital asset agenda.

Lummis, who is helping to negotiate a landmark rewrite of Wall Street regulations to accommodate crypto trading in the Senate, publicly rejected SBF’s endorsementof the legislative effort on X.

“I worked so hard trying to separate the fraudster from the means he used that I just don’t even want him to rear his ugly head in this argument,” she said in an interview. “Because he does muddy the water.”
