"The First World War ended the Ottoman Empire and paved the way for the “rise of the Zionist movement”, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wrote in a series of tweets to mark the 100th anniversary since the end of the war yesterday"

What a scumbag Netanyahu is none of those people who died in world war 1 or 2 died for his little zionist terror groups which at the time were called the Irgun gang and stern gang.

A $2 BILLION Saudi Plan To Assassinate Iran's Leaders Involved Erik Prince And The Trump Transition Team
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-12/2bn-saudi-plan-assassinate-iranian-officials-involved-erik-prince-and-trump
An explosive New York Times story citing multiple unnamed sources familiar with the matter details how top Saudi intelligence officials conspired to assassinate Iranian leaders — including Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) Quds force commander Qassim Suleimani.

The Times identifies George Nader, a Lebanese-American businessman, and an Israeli named Joel Zamel, who has close ties to Israeli intelligence and owns a company called Psy-Group, as a couple of the key businessmen who attempted to move the plan forward.
George Nader and MbS

George Nader is [also] a known adviser to the UAE crown prince MbZ — a country at the forefront of executing the Saudi coalition war on Yemen.

►Eventually, the businessmen would pitch the [assassination-economic sabotage] plan to the White House at a moment they thought they could gain a sympathetic ear in the then incoming Trump administration.
►This is where controversial Blackwater founder Erik Prince comes in

►Mr. Nader and Mr. Zamel enlisted Erik Prince, the former head of Blackwater and an adviser to the Trump transition team. They had already discussed elements of their plan with Mr. Prince, in a meeting when they learned of his own paramilitary proposals that he planned to try to sell to the Saudis.
Former Blackwater CEO Erik Prince now heads Frontier Services Group.


►After Mr. Trump was inaugurated in January 2017, Mr. Nader met frequently with White House officials to discuss the economic sabotage plan.

MURDER SQUAD FOR YEMEN

While it's unclear the extent to which the ambitious plan was ever put into motion, a number of journalists and analysts have connected it with last month's bombshell revelation that
►Green Beret, Navy SEAL, and CIA paramilitary veterans were hired under the aegis of an American based security company called Spear Operations Group to become what a BuzzFeed exclusive described as the private "murder squad" for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and its de facto ruler, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan (MBZ).

Starting in 2015 the UAE sent a group of about a dozen mostly American private contractors to Yemen to conduct targeted killings of prominent clerics and political figures who had run afoul crown prince MBZ in the war-torn country.

►The group would receive active "target lists" through the UAE military chain of command while en route to Yemen.

.......

We can also only imagine what Iran's president and his generals must be thinking this morning as they open up the pages of the New York Times to find such a far ranging plan that had the intimate involvement of an Israeli businessman and top Saudi leaders to assassinate themselves detailed for all the world to see.



I don't think they're surprised.

This is very good summary. Also we should not forget that earlier this year informations about Israeli interest in Soleimani's assassination leaked to the public. Allegedly the operation was greenlighted by Trump's regime:

https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/u-s-gives-israel-green-light-to-assassinate-iran-s-general-soleimani-1.5630156


Israel itself has long record of politically motivated assassinations abroad. Actually, zionists started with them even before modern day Israel was created (lord Walter Guinness, assassinated by Stern gang/Lehi). They carry on this tactic till present days and it's widely overlooked by so-called international community.

Since the oil companies pay 78 percent taxes to the state for production, the shutdown ultimately resulted in a substantial economic loss for the nation..."

I think the Saudis and Israelis are panicking Israel is surrounded by Hezbollah, Assad/Iran and Hamas on all of its borders and the weapons they have are getting better and more dangerous for Israel and Saudi Arabia is surrounded by Hashd Al-Sha'abi/PMF, Qatar/Turkey and the Houthis are their borders.
