Iranian News: Saudis Are Financing Israeli Assassination Operations in Iran

Thousands of mourners chanted “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” in January during the funeral procession of nuclear scientist Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan. Iranian officials accused the two nations of the assassination as part of a secret operation to stop Iran’s nuclear program. (ISNA)

Mourners carried pictures of Barack Obama at the funeral.

This weekend the Iranian regime accused Saudi Arabia of funding the assassination operations.
Iranian Fars News Service reported:

A report by a well-known journalist revealed that Saudi Arabia has provided financial backup for the Israeli Mossad agency’s terror operations on Iran’s nuclear scientists.

The collaboration between Mossad and Riyadh was unveiled by Barry Lando in an article titled “A Strange Alliance: Are the Saudis Bankrolling Israel’s Mossad?”

Barry M. Lando, a graduate of Harvard and Columbia University, spent 25 years as an award-winning investigative producer with 60 Minutes. His latest book is “Web of Deceit: The History of Western Complicity in Iraq, from Churchill to Kennedy to George W. Bush.”

Lando wrote:

A friend, with good sources in the Israeli government, claims that the head of Israel’s Mossad has made several trips to deal with his counterparts in Saudi Arabia-one of the results: an agreement that the Saudis would bankroll the series of assassinations of several of Iran’s top nuclear experts that have occurred over the past couple of years. The amount involved, my friend claims, was $1 billion dollar. A sum, he says, the Saudis considered cheap for the damage done to Iran’s nuclear program.

If you look at a map, the Iranian nuclear facilities are directly across from the UAE and the Gulf coast of Saudi Arabia. The Iranians have long had their eye on controlling access to Mecca and Medina. The annual Haj to Mecca is worth billions – SA’s big source on non-oil income as well as their big source of power and legitimacy in the muslim world. I suspect that would bankroll anybody and everybody to keep it that way.

UAE Calls for Anti-Muslim Brotherhood Coalition

[The United Arab Emirates may be hard to spot on a map and it may only

formation of a coalition against the Brotherhood and is threatening to
send saboteurs into Iran.]

#5,

The Saudis are never to be trusted. They are funding Madrassas are over Europe, Canada, and the U.S. When something occurs that threatens their Kingdom and control of power, they hire someone else to do the work that they see is beneath them.

The Saudis are masters at deception.

Saudi Arabia has as much fear of Iran as anyone else. I wouldn’t doubt it.

Also, I’m sick of seeing enraged mysogenist Islamic extremist males rioting in the streets.
