Iranian Intelligence Chief Who Plotted Trump's Assassination Confirmed Dead Due to Airstrike and Overdose of Amyl Nitrite and Disco Dancing but Mostly the Airstrike

The homophobes Trump and Netanyahu are murdering one Brown Homosexual after another.

@grok

Yes, verified. Israel's Defense Minister announced that Iranian Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib was killed in an overnight airstrike in Tehran. Iranian President Pezeshkian has since confirmed the death, calling it a "cowardly assassination." This is the third senior Iranian official killed in 48 hours per multiple reports (AP, BBC, Al Jazeera, Reuters).

So close to Pride Month? SO CLOSE TO PRIDE MONTH?!?!

By the way I don't know this guy was gay. I just assume that everyone in the Iranian leadership is (was) a closet case.


Let's see what Iran's current (for the nonce) President says:

Masoud Pezeshkian
@drpezeshkian

Translated from Persian

The cowardly assassination of my dear colleagues Ismail Khatib, Ali Larijani, and Aziz Nasirzadeh, alongside some of their family members and accompanying team, has left us in deep mourning.

I extend my condolences to the great people of Iran for the martyrdom of two cabinet members, the secretary of the Shura, and the military and Basij commanders. I am certain their path will continue more steadfastly than before.

Sounds tough!

But then... there are reports he is desperate to resign because he doesn't want to be the next to be killed:

Wall Street Mav

There are reports that Iran's President Pezeshkian tried to submit his resignation to the Supreme Leader today, but Mojtaba Khamenei is not available (he is likely dead).

Nobody is in charge of Iran.

The top 200 mullahs and IRGC leaders are dead.

SMOD linked this report. I have no idea how credible it is:

The Iran Watcher 🇮🇷
@TheIranWatcher

🚨 Iran's presidency has collapsed as its own president pleads not to be assassinated.

Masoud Pezeshkian is telling foreign counterparts he has no authority, no access to leadership, and no control over the system, effectively disavowing responsibility as the regime fractures from within.

According to Persian Gulf sources, he informed officials across the region, as well as Russia and Turkey, that the constitutional leadership structure has broken down and he is completely cut off from it, stressing there is no justification for targeting him.

Pezeshkian is trying to save his own life as the regime crumbles, a clear sign the Islamic Republic is losing control.

Yesterday a commenter reported that Iranian civilians were passing intel to Israel via Starlink, telling them where Basij troops were on the streets, so that they could be targeted for airstrikes.

This Jerusalem Post story has more:


Iranian civilians sent Israel intel to strike Basij checkpoints in Tehran - WSJ

The Wall Street Journal reported that Iranians on the ground have been transmitting information in Persian through Israeli social media accounts.


Israel has been relying in part on target information sent by ordinary Iranians for strikes carried out during the current war with Iran, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

The report said this was the case on Wednesday night, when an Israeli Hermes UAV struck Basij checkpoints in Tehran, citing a senior Israeli security official.

The official said Iranians on the ground have been transmitting information in Persian through Israeli social media accounts. According to the report, the information is first verified and vetted by Israeli authorities, and action is taken only after it is found to be accurate.

Iranian state media reported on Wednesday evening that Israeli drones targeted checkpoints in Tehran, killing several members of Iran's security forces, including some affiliated with the Basij militia. Separate reports said several regime security personnel and Basij members were killed in the strikes.

If confirmed, the reported use of civilian-supplied intelligence would point to an additional layer in Israel's targeting apparatus inside Iran.

Thanks to Michael the Texan for that link.

Meanwhile, beckster sends this report:

Thought this was interesting, from Amit Segal's daily Substack Noon In Israel:

---------------------------
Meanwhile, Israel is calling mid- and low-level commanders, threatening them and their families if they don't stand aside in the event of an uprising.

One conversation is worth recounting.

"Can you hear me?" a Mossad agent can be heard, speaking in Farsi. "We know everything about you. You are on our blacklist, and we have all the information about you."

"OK," the commander said in the recording.

"I called to warn you in advance that you should stand with your people's side," the Mossad agent said. "And if you will not do that, your destiny will be as your leader. Do you hear me?"

"Brother, I swear on the Quran, I'm not your enemy," the commander said. "I'm a dead man already. Just please come help us."

31 Didn't the Brits also have a boat "captured" by the Iranians at about the same time?

IIRC, the couple of Royal Marines that were shown while the Iranians showered the captured crew with Ipods looked like they were going to absolutely keelhaul the crew when they got out of Iran.

Trump would have sent a couple of billion dollars worth of Tomahawks to Iran instead of pallets of cash/gold.

Rand Paul, saying in his opening statements to the Homeland Security committee that he understood why his neighbor attacked him. “I simply addressed I said I can understand because of the behavior you were having, I understand your neighbor did what he did,” Mullin said.

“We just don’t get along. However, sir, that doesn’t keep me at all from doing my job,” he added. “I can set it aside if you’re willing to set it aside. Let me earn my job. … I’m not perfect. I don’t claim to be perfect. I make mistakes like everyone else.”

49 I think it's apparent that there are some rabid Islamists hell bent on going down with the ship that was Iran. The IRGC is fanatically loyal to the Islamic way and will probably fight to the death. Maybe not all of them, just most.

IMO there will be a big push by the US and Israel to wipe out IRGC strongholds, missile storage and launch gear and whatever else poses a threat to the Hormuz over the next couple days.

85 I think it's apparent that there are some rabid Islamists hell bent on going down with the ship that was Iran. The IRGC is fanatically loyal to the Islamic way and will probably fight to the death. Maybe not all of them, just most.

IMO there will be a big push by the US and Israel to wipe out IRGC strongholds, missile storage and launch gear and whatever else poses a threat to the Hormuz over the next couple days.

Is the war really going this well? -- It appears Iran can not last much longer.

Why is Left hysterical? -- is this another 80/20 and they can't help themselves, or are they really believing the MSM propaganda.

Why is Trump making such a big deal about getting other countries to help secure the strait? -- Just to show what losers they are? To have something to bitch about at next trade negotiations? Because he really needs support? Or maybe just because it pisses him off.

And final question -- is the creep Lindsey Graham wacking off to a DJT tie he found in the oval office dreaming impure thoughts at his new hero, and then afterward breaking down sobbing over his betrayal of JM, down on his knees begging for forgiveness?

I'm reminded of a story my high school history teacher, Mr. Holmes, told us of his tours in Vietnam (he did three with the Marines).

The American encampments in the wilds would go without fires in the night to avoid being sniped at.

The South Korean encampments would have fires out in the open.

What was the difference?

Well, if a SK encampment got attacked in the night, they'd find the nearest village and burn it down the next day.

193 The numbers for March 8/9 in Tokyo and Hiroshima both involve some estimation, for various reasons. I think best estimates for the two events are pretty close to each other, though Hiroshima would be higher.

Years ago a mayor of Tokyo would gently mock the "cult of Hiroshima", citing the March 8 catastrophe in Tokyo.

The more important unknown fact is that the excess deaths due to the Japanese occupation/economic collapse and war throughout their conquered empire were almost certainly 2-3 Hiroshimas per month as long as the war went on.

Well publicly Iran has been quoted as saying the straits are open to non Israeli and US traffic. So if a 3rd party escort comes in it could protect from stray shots and not get massively shot at. This might be a lie, of course but every tanker getting out brings down the economic temperature a bit.

And yes, the refusal to help does improve Trumps posture with the assholes in Europe. We are pivoting away from those nations generally and its a win win to either get them to help or have diplomatic ammo if they do not help.

That was operative until 2 weeks ago. Now it is OBE (overtaken by events)

a) Is the resistance by MSM, TDS, "experts," etc. because they are too slow and stupid to change opinion when facts change?

b) They hate Trump more than they love America?

c) They really are on the other side and want the USA to fall?

306 Guy Mohawk, that's how it's most likely to happen - one/several areas revolting, destroying regime enforcement personnel and mechanisms, and declaring itself "liberated".

Khuzestan in the far southwest (and oil-rich) seems like a good candidate. Already public instances of mass dissent there over the past few years. Large Arab population (not really separatist, but this grievances). And Tabriz up north. Always a bit different than other parts of the country, center of Azeri ethnic population.

Guess we'll see.

Only certainty remains the duh-obvious one the dumbed-down American politix forces people to tap dance around. Anything other than change of regime is mowing the lawn/kicking can down the road (albeit, in this case, *far* down the road).

316 I think the only legitimate argument against war in Iran is that the costs are too high, it is too risky, and we do not want to spend a lot of lives and treasure as it will surely fail like Iraq. (this was my feeling.)

That was operative until 2 weeks ago. Now it is OBE (overtaken by events)


For me that argument hasn't been operative since Midnight Hammer. That already proved Iran's defenses aren't shit and that it would be straightforward to establish uncontested air supremacy. And that's how it went.

The part where we've proven that the only two competent militaries on the planet are the US Armed Forces and the IDF is a nice bonus against future troublemaking, as well.

Posted by: Heroq at March 18, 2026 02:21 PM (RD49f)

I have been watching a naval historian from England a bit and he had an interesting talk not directly about the current situation but about the realities of a Navy. if you want to have a ship on station overseas, or ready to respond to a crisis you really need to have 4 ships of that class, since one would be in transit, in short term maintenance or in long term repair/upgrading. If you have more than 4 total, you might be lucky to improve the ratio of those on station a bit, but there is a huge tail of ships that can't just sail out and fight.

So when you let your Navy drop to just a few ships of each type because it looks good on paper, it may not be ready when a crisis happens.

Now there would be a useful project for the CIA! They could do a public awareness campaign throughout Europe, aimed at Syrian refugees: that since Syria is under Sharia now, they have to leave. When it was not under Sharia, then there was no difference in living in some other country that was also not under Sharia; but now they are defying Sharia by remaining outside of it. (At least that's my understanding.)
