Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad -- a polarizing
hardliner who became the face of Tehran's nuclear defiance and
incendiary anti-Israel rhetoric -- was reportedly killed in
Israeli airstrikes at the outset of the military operation
inside Iran.

A report by the Israeli media outlet Ma'ariv stated that
Ahmadinejad was under house arrest at the time and was killed
in a targeted strike on his residence.

There was no immediate confirmation from Iranian authorities.

Ahmadinejad served as Iran's sixth president from 2005 to 2013,
rising from relative obscurity as mayor of Tehran to defeat
establishment figure Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani in a surprise
2005 runoff.

His disputed 2009 reelection triggered the mass "Green Movement"
protests, which were violently suppressed by security forces
in one of the most serious internal crises of the Islamic
Republic.

Critics at home and abroad described him as a confrontational
ideologue whose economic management fueled inflation and whose
rhetoric deepened Iran's international isolation.

During his tenure, the United Nations Security Council imposed
multiple rounds of sanctions over Iran's nuclear program,
intensifying Tehran's economic isolation.

Ahmadinejad became especially notorious in the West for his
rhetoric toward Israel and his comments about the Holocaust.

Apparently, he was accused of planning a coup.

It's now official: former Iranian president and Israel-hater
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was eliminated last night in the opening
strike.

The amazing fact is that his whereabouts were known because he
had been under house arrest since he tried to carry out a coup
a few weeks ago.

The coup he planned was in an even more extreme direction.

Akshooooally, at least initially he was cusrsing out the UK
and then added Israel and the US. If you just watched American
coverage of his UN speech you didn't catch the HATRED he exuded
towars the UK before mentioning the others.

That's now UNofficial as latest reports are he is still alive.

Perhaps he and Mojtaba Khamenei can trade jokes about the
gun-jumpers at alt.obituaries.

Disappointing, if true. Have you a cite?

Hmm.

Speaking of the latter, however:

BREAKING: In the official "allegiance ceremony to Mojtaba
Khamenei", they could bring only a cardboard cutout of him.

He is reportedly unconscious after an assassination attempt.
