Argentina has issued a new arrest warrant for an Iranian official in connection with the 1994 AMIA Jewish community center bombing in Buenos Aires, at the same time that the alleged mastermind was named the new head of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Ahmad Vahidi was appointed head of the IRGC on Sunday, a day after the unit’s previous leader was killed in the first wave of US-Israeli strikes. Vahidi helmed the IRGC’s Quds Force paramilitary arm responsible for attacks abroad at the time of the AMIA bombing.
Argentinians see poetry in the first strikes, which killed Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and dozens of his deputies as they met in Tehran. The street where they were meeting was named for Louis Pasteur, the same name as the street in Buenos Aires where the AMIA Jewish community organization is located.

Tik-tok, Tik-tok, Tik-tok, Tik-tok...
They’re coming around lol
... and this is how junior leadership suddenly becomes senior leadership, one hot day in Tehran.
If he hasn’t been “retired” yet, he most likely will be before the weekend’s over. :-)
Don’t cry for him, Argentina, he won’t survive long.
They are really scrapping the bottom of the barrel for hardline lunatic leaders. Expecting some of them to come out with a walker LOL
Almost like we have wiped out most of their roster :)
Shallow bench.
Oddly the pork from the last leader’s funeral is still warm on the serving table. There is enough pork for installation of the new leader, and likely enough for his funeral. LOL
Been to that Jewish Center.....still can’t figure out WHY they hit a place in Buenos Aires.
