Iranian Officials Reveal Tehran's Global Assassination Program as US Trial of Regime Assassin Suspect Continues

The Manhattan-based federal trial of an individual hired by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to assassinate Iranian-American journalist Masih Alinejad coincided with the shocking revelation that Tehran ordered the killing of dissidents in Europe, a news that could have profound implications for President Trump's Iran policy. Jason Brodsky, policy director of the United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI), said, "Mohsen Rafiqdoost's comments are a guilty plea. It has to be replayed every time an Iranian official is interviewed by a Western journalist who denies involvement in the assassination plot. The trial that began on Monday is a reminder that the threat of regime violence is real, potentially deadly, and will not disappear simply by burying our heads in the sand."
