My mom said the same thing, why did this guy leave the building minutes prior..maybe they got advance warning, because the US does not want a larger war, they dont want it because it would hurt them politically

Barak Ravid @BarakRavid:
🚨🚨An Israeli official told me the target was Fuad Shukr also known as al-Hajj Mohsin- a senior advisor on military affairs to Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah and in charge of all Hezbollah’s military operations. Shukr is wanted by the FBI for his involvement in the bombing of the marines barracks in Beirut in 1983 which killed 241 U.S. service members

“...and is wanted by US for his role in 1983 Marines barracks bombing...”

Doesn’t sound like the US is very interested in getting this guy.

My guess is the US tipped him off so that he would not be in the building. Why Israel would tell the US ANYTHING is beyond me, they know they cant trust this Govt, they want to win an election, they are the most anti Israel administration since Obama..they know a wider war would hurt them politically, so Israel tells the US what their plan is, the US tips the guy off and he gets away

C’mon man, it’s only been 40 years of “ investigating”

The fact this guy is breathing lends itself to conspiracy theory about who he really “works” for

If you keep them alive, you can farm information from them. I suspect that’s what happened to Bin Laden. You tap their comms.
