Iranian Vice President vows to make enemies “repent” for “terrorist actions”
The Sunday Times reports (from behind a pay wall) that Iranian
nuclear scientist Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan was assassinated last week by
the Israeli intelligence network Mossad as part of a “precursor to a
military strike”.
The Times claims that a reliable source, a Mossad insider, says he
was part of a group that killed Roshan last week in Iran as he made his
way to work at the Natanz uranium enrichment facility.
The source told the Times that the operation was planned months in
advance and a Mossad team had been monitoring Roshan’s activities and
taking note of his schedule, so as to decide when and where to kill him.
“There is zero tolerance for mistakes. By nature, every failure not
only risks the neck of the agents but also risks turning into an
international scandal,” said the Israeli source.
From Ha’aretz:
According to the Sunday Times, Roshan, 32, was monitored from a makeshift control room in a safe house nearby as he was preparing to leave for work. Israeli agents were also watching the entrance to Iranian intelligence headquarters in the city center, when they noticed a number of cars and people running, followed by police rushing into the nearby streets. Another agent monitoring radio traffic between the Tehran police and security forces confirmed unusual activity, said the paper.
The report states that as Roshan’s bodyguard was driving him to Natanz uranium enrichment site, where he served as director, a masked person on a motorbike weaved through traffic, planting a bomb on the car shaped to deliver its full force at the passenger.
Both British and U.S. officials have denied any role in the
assassination. “We were not involved in any way with regards to the
assassination that took place there,” said Secretary of Defense Leon
Panetta, adding that he had “some idea” of who was.
Last week, another Mossad source indicated that the assassination also incorporated the CIA-backed terrorist group Mujahedeen-e Khalq (MEK).
The Iranian regime says it too has direct evidence that Mossad, as well as the CIA, was involved in the assassination.
Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei said attack “has been
carried out by the planning or support of CIA and Mossad (spy) services,
like all other crimes of the network of international state terrorism”.
The Iranian Fars News Agency
reported today that Iranian First Vice-President Mohammad Reza Rahimi
described the assassination as a “futile action” and that Iran would
make those responsible regret their “terrorist actions”.
“They want to stop the Islamic Republic through assassination but
they will repent (their actions),” Rahimi said Tuesday. “The Islamic
Republic has proper ways and mechanisms for giving them a response,”
Rahimi added.
Back in November, reports suggested
that Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu believed that Israeli
plans to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities were leaked by Mossad insiders
who did not wish to see an attack take place.
The reports, out of Kuwait, suggested that the plans drawn up by
Netanyahu and Ehud Barak, the defence minister, had moved from the stage
of discussion to implementation.
“Those who oppose the plan within the security establishment decided
to leak it to the media and thwart the plan,” the Kuwaiti newspaper
al-Jarida reported.
