"President Biden told Israel not to kill [Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan] Nasrallah last October when the IDF had him in their sights."
Tel Aviv, October 9 - Israeli operators of the airborne systems from which Shiite terrorists in Lebanon were eliminated over the last several months have applied for millions of dollars in bounty that the United States had placed on the heads of many of those targets because of their involvement in terrorist attacks against Americans since the early 1980's.
Sixteen fighter jet pilots and two drone controllers have submitted their request to collect $23 million for the killings of such arch-terrorists as Hassan Nasrallah and Fuad Shukr, as the IDF personnel fired the shots that took out those most-wanted men. A spokesman for the Ministry of Defense told reporters that the group had decided to apply all at once, both to draw attention to the importance of their collective efforts and to emphasize to the American public the critical role that a strong, assertive Israel plays in protecting US interests.
Colonel Dammo Berosho disclosed to journalists that the personnel who applied yesterday for the rewards included sixteen officers of the IAF and two enlisted drone controllers, both women, who deployed the ordnance that killed the Hezbollah terrorists responsible for the bombing of the US Marine barracks in Beirut that killed 241, people, 220 of them Marines, in 1983; the bombing of the US Embassy in Beirut in 1983, which killed 63, 17 of them American; another bombing of the same location in 1984, killing 23 people, 2 of them American; and the kidnapping, torture, and murder of individual Americans such as William Francis Buckley, among numerous other attacks that killed or harmed Americans in Lebanon, Israel, or elsewhere in the Middle East.
"We nevertheless anticipate some opposition from the usual quarters to 'American taxpayers giving money to Israel,'" cautioned Colonel Berosho. "But those chuckleheads then have to answer why it was necessary for Israel to take care of something the US claimed it was trying to accomplish for more than forty years. The families of the dead US servicemen and diplomatic staff might have a thing or two to say about that, including, as was reported last week, that President Biden told Israel not to kill [Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan] Nasrallah last October when the IDF had him in their sights."
Israel killed Nasrallah and about 20 high-ranking Hezbollah commanders and operatives in an air strike two Fridays ago.
Reports began circulating in Washington that the Biden administration is seeking ways to avoid paying the applicants the reward money so they can ship the cash to Iran instead.
