Too small, but that amount is certainly enough for a hit-man to assassinate the entire Iranian legislators.
I wonder if Ahmad would fork over that $3 mil to an infidel? If the interwebs are any indicator, he should be able to find a taker closer to Trump. At any rate he should stay off planes leaving Iranian airspace.
Iranian MP puts bounty on Pres. Trump's head This offers all of us a good example for why state-led assassinations were outlawed several administrations ago. If we assume our government leaders have the right to assassinate foreign leaders who disagree with us, then it is equally true that members of foreign governments can assume that same right for themselves against us. Trump ignored our own prohibition, & assassinated a high ranking military leader from Iran. There's no question the man deserved killing, but Trump opened a Pandora's box of potential horror by doing that. Trump placed himself & any future President (or prominent American leader) in jeopardy by this action. For me, this is just one more, atop many examples, of Trump's failure as a leader.
Well given that he was apparently likely to be the next leader it would be more or less tit for tat if you agree with that sort of thing.
I see us as being in a moderately hot war with Iran and it's getting hotter each day. There is no way that hot heads, and there are plenty of them in the Middle East, will stop attacking Americans and foreigners - even if Iran does stop. It's not a smart thing to kill the most popular hero of a country unless you're itching for war. Netanyahu finally got the war he wanted, but I fear it's not going to turn out the way he wanted. That whole area is going to go up in flames, and Israel will not escape it. He's being a foolish man.
I wouldn't exactly consider us as being civilized. How many deaths and sufferings can be contributed to us and how many to Iran? The belief that others will do to us what we do to them if given the chance is paranoia, and nothing makes a person more paranoid than committing injustices towards others.
Funnily enough I heard quite a few people talking about that yesterday - Americans claiming they are the 'Good Guys' when nothing could be further from the truth. Unfortunately today too many Americans have lost the ability to self reflect but possibly more concerning far too many have lost the ability to value the lives of other people. I see it on this forum every day their love of killing. I do not even know they know it. Look at the actions of the US. It destroys countries who elect someone they do not like. Then it hates democracy. If it wants to destroy a country for its resources, for example Venezuela then it claims it is not a democracy and tries to put in the most violent group of the country...because they will give the US the resources it wants. I cannot remember how many wars the US is currently involved in but it is a lot. If you just take the Middle East, wars fought on lies is estimated to have resulted in the death of around 4 million people never mind the millions of refugees - all dead and homeless because the US fought a war on a lie. The US is without question the most violent country in the world and has for years been voted No one as the most dangerous country in the world., The US does not know how to negotiate and when it does it then breaks deals - something it always has done (never kept them to the Indians). The US is not a force for good. It makes its money by war, and both with its love of war and denial of the Climate emergency, the US will be the country to destroy this world.
Don't worry, he surely has dual citizenship and can flee to the US at any moment! Actually, so can the rest of the Israelis.. even to Canada.
