WHOA: Obama Admin May Have Warned Terrorist Leader of Israeli Assassination Plot as Exposed by Chatty Former Spox
The Obama administration may have prevented the assassination of a terrorist military leader by Israel by letting the leader know the plan beforehand, as Obama’s former U.S. National Security Council spokesman may have revealed in a tweet.
It all started when The New York Times’ Bret Stephens tweeted out an article from Hareetz, which claimed an assassination attempt on Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, who is also commander of the Quds forces, a sponsor of terrorism according to the U.S.
“The story here, Kuwaiti-sourced, is that Obama team tipped Tehran to an Israeli attempt to assassinate Qassem Soleimani, the Iranian general who has the blood of hundreds of American troops in his hand. What says [Ben Rhodes]?” asked Stephens, referring to Obama’s former foreign policy adviser.

Answering him, however, was Tommy Vietor who worked as Obama’s former U.S. National Security spokesman.
“Yeah WTF Ben? Immediately confirm or deny this totally unsubstantiated claim and then tell us why you don’t support assassinations,” tweeted Vietor.

Stephens reached back into history and reminded Vietor that the Iran-Contra scandal started similarly, and reminded Vietor that actually, the Obama administration was all about assassinations. In fact, they trumpeted one assassination as one of its primary accomplishments.
“Funny, I remember how Iran-Contra scandal began [Tommy Vietor]. Little story in obscure Lebanese magazine. Also glad to know Obama administration doesn’t support assassinations—except by SEAL team or drone strike. Because that’s totally different,” he tweeted.

Vietor brought up the assassination of Osama bin Laden as a defense, but called Suleimani an “Iranian political leader.”
Yeah @BretStephensNYT taking out Osama bin Laden is the same as assassinating an Iranian political leader. https://t.co/PKRWFjgZPW

Calling Suleimani a political leader didn’t sit right for Stephens, who reminded Vietor who the general was, and who he led.
“Seriously, Tommy Vietor? Suleimani is an ‘Iranian political leader’? Actually he’s head of the Quds Force, which is a US designated sponsor of terrorism. Suleimani is sanctioned by name. Here, read about it,” he said, linking to information about the Quds Forces.
That’s when Vietor may have spilled way too many beans. Firstly, Vietor called a U.S. supported assassination of Suleimani “irresponsible.”
He’s a military leader, Quds force commander, major political figure in their system. And a general piece of shit. But to blithely suggest the US should support his assassination is irresponsible.

Then replying to conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt, Vietor let loose that Obama did many things against Iran to deter them, but revealed that an “assassination of QS by Israel would be destabilizing to put it mildly.”
We were well aware of the dangers posed by QS and the IRGC. Obama sanctioned them repeatedly, among other deterrents. But an assassination of QS by Israel would be destabilizing to put it mildly.

Did Vietor just reveal that the Obama admin had betrayed Israel by revealing an assassination plot against a terrorist leader? Stephens asked him.
So did you alert Iran to the Israeli surveillance and potential attempt, @TVietor08? It sounds like you are confirming the story. https://t.co/JwhLFNoaXF

Vietor hasn’t replied since.
Let’s not forget that evidence surfaced that the Obama administration was recently enabling Hezbollah’s narco-terrorism in fear that stopping it would harm the Iran deal. Standing in the way of an assassination attempt by Israel would seem right up the Obama admin’s alley in this case.

It is hard to say whether Israel or America does the most assassinations. Both seem proud of their record.
Now, Israel was born as a terrorist state, so who can blame them? But it’s hard to find “assassination” or even “extrajudicial executions” authorized in the Constitution, so these illegal acts are clearly being committed by a government gone rogue.
The excuse is that the target “has the blood of hundreds of American troops on his hands”, with no specifics. But, as we have heard, it’s not the evidence that is important, but the seriousness of the charge. So that’s why it’s ok to kill him. In fact, this article expresses shock that one assassin would warn a target about the other assassin.
Think for a moment how far this has gone and what we have become.
