Iran accuses Israel of assassinating Fakhrizadeh: the latest adventure of a quarter of an hour

Tel Aviv, and Washington behind it, are risking the last fifteen minutes. The two sides are racing against time no more than two months from Joe Biden’s inauguration, to establish a fait accompli that is hard for anyone to beat. After the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, as responsible for Iran’s regional role, and the sabotage operation that affected the “Natanz” nuclear reactor, it was the turn of the last files of the confrontation, which is the Iranian missile program, by killing the man who is described as “one of the most important scientific elites responsible for the defense industries.” in the country. “A process that may represent a model of the strikes that the Donald Trump administration promised in its last days, opening the door to dangerous scenarios, especially in light of Iran’s promise to take revenge on all those who decided, planned and implemented.

Not shortly after the contradictory news received from Tehran about the fate of Iranian scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the Defense Ministry came out to cut off the doubt about the certainty, announcing through a statement that “the head of the scientific research center in the ministry , Mohsen Fakhri Zadeh, was martyred in an armed terrorist attack. ” Failed attempts to save his life, while the Tasnim agency reported that “Fakhri Zadeh passed away after being taken to hospital after being seriously injured.”
The official announcement of the fate of the Iranian scientist was followed by a series of other official positions that not only condemned the murder, but also clear accusations against Israel, as stated in the tweets written by both Foreign Minister Muhammad Javad Zarif, and by the advisor to the defense industries guide, Hussein Dehghan, as he considered the first in his tweet that “This cowardice in killing the prominent Iranian scientist carries serious indications of the Israeli role, and shows the desperate attempt of the perpetrators to provoke a war, while the other warned that “the Zionist entity is pushing towards an all-out war”, promising that “the Zionists will pay the price of assassination”, stressing that “our response will descend like lightning to the murderers.” Likewise, the head of the Iranian Joint Chiefs of Staff, Major General Muhammad Bagheri, threatened that “a difficult reprisal will await the terrorist groups and their leaders responsible for this assassination,” stating that his country “will not hesitate to prosecute and punish the responsible for the murder of scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh “. As for the speaker of the Iranian parliament, he was clearer in defining the parties to be included in the Iranian response, saying that “our revenge will include all those who carried out and supported the assassination of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.”
The Iranian indictment aimed specifically at Israel from the very beginning, even before an official account was released on the details of the assassination, comes in light of Tel Aviv’s apparent efforts in recent years to stop the wheel of progress in the Iran’s nuclear and missile programs, as well as its attempts to end Iranian influence in the region or border. of the. Israel was the first to support the “maximum pressure” policy that the administration of outgoing US President Donald Trump continues to practice against Iran, to push it to sit at a negotiating table that includes all three files at once, in order to make up for the “mistake” of the nuclear deal that did not limit Iran’s nuclear capabilities, in addition to neglecting Tehran’s missile program and regional influence.

Israel is mobilizing its energies to seize the time before Biden takes office

However, the Israeli-American goals envisioned by the “maximum pressure” policy have not yet been achieved. Despite the economic pressure that Iran is experiencing as a result of successive US sanctions against it since Washington’s withdrawal from the nuclear deal in May 2018, Tehran still refuses to comply with US demands, prompting the administration Trump in his final year to keep up with that policy with military operations. A wish that contributes to achieving your aspirations for all three files before time runs out. This year began with the assassination of the commander of the Iranian “Quds Force”, General Qassem Soleimani, and the deputy commander of the Iraqi “Popular Mobilization”, Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, in an airstrike near Baghdad international airport. . At the time, it was seen as a direct target of Iran’s regional role in order to end it or at least weaken it, based on the fact that Soleimani is the direct Iranian responsible for this role.
As for the nuclear issue, the mid-year explosion of the “Natanz” nuclear facility was not separated from the context of the US and Israeli objectives required within its framework. The explosion, according to a spokesperson for Iran’s Nuclear Power Authority, Behrouz Kamalundi, “slowed the development and production of sophisticated centrifuges in the medium term.” Although no party has endorsed this attack, according to the latest Iranian statements made by the guide’s advisor for defense industries, Hossein Dehghan, “it occurred due to industrial sabotage.”
Finally, with the countdown to the end of Trump’s term beginning, and in light of upcoming indications of a different approach that President-elect Joe Biden’s administration will follow with Tehran, it appears that Israel has mobilized its energies to harness the time frame before Biden officially assumes his duties to attack Iran on the record of the third confrontation. Incorporated into the missile program, it chose Iranian scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, who was previously considered by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 2018 as “responsible for preparing Iran for nuclear missiles.”
