Targeted assassinations of Iran's senior people

I'm having difficulty getting my head round this. Why are Iran's senior political and intelligence people so vulnerable to Israeli attacks when they know the numbers that have been killed?

Why are these people not better protected and hidden away? Or is it that Israel has infiltrated so deeply into Iran's internal structure that their precise locations are being fed back to the enemy?

I just don't get it. You'd think that after the supreme leader and his family were targeted that Irans would go to great lengths to protect their top-ranking people. What's your theory?

Yes, I presume a mix of infiltration at various levels and also higher recognition tech.

Modern states have a large state apparat, people won't stop using mobile phones (ouanqueurs) they have to keep doing their jobs so a few get sniped. I'm not sure that all that many have been blammed considering.

There was a case I read recently where the Israelis bombed three separate sites at the same time just to assassinate one guy.

At one of the sites as I recall, they took the whole block out killing over 50 people.
So they have intel, but often not quite as good as they would like and compensate by means of utterly ruthless slaughter.

It astonishes me that people haven't clued in yet that it's us that are the bad guys. The UK supplies Israel with bombs and reconnaissance and uses millions in taxpayers money defending the perp colony with British fighter jets and missiles.

Of course that cost pales into insignificance considering the economic consequences of the Yanqui Israeli war. I wouldn't be surprised if this is the final nail in the coffin for the already rotting British economy. The public haven't a clue. The oil is going to stop shortly and every week this continues is another week in a month or so that there will be no oil from the middle east.The British government is aiding and abetting the destruction of its own economy and it's getting worse because the perps refuse to acknowledge their regime change plan has failed.

The only sane choice is to pull out but it's likelier they will follow the insane course as usual and try bomb one of the greatest cultural nations the world has ever seen "into the Stone age"

UK politicians seem to have no notion at all of what's happening or the scale of the consequences of what they are doing and are still intent on walking us blindly into economic disaster.

Needless to say the whole thing makes me feel ill.

This just constantly amazes me. You can understand it from idealogues, spooks, politicians as they have a reason to pretend (mostly finanical/power related) but people in the street who were around for Iraq twice, Afghanistan, Libya, Lebanon several times (although that probably gets lost in the "I don't really understand it, seems to be some sort of civil conflict" maze) and most recently and glaringly Gaza, who can't see what side "we" are on almost have to be actively deluding themselves. There's cognitive dissonance and then there's burying your head in the sand.

It really is ridiculous how people don't see this by now. The blatant horror and atrocity of Gaza should surely lead them to reconsider the previous "wars" in a different light but apparently they are still buying the "we are the light" bullshit.

The corporate media are complicit in the Gaza genocide.
Never forget what they did. Never forgive them for it.

Thanks for responses but no one offered one that struck me as convincing, particularly Keith's that modern states rely too much on high tech and mobile phone use. Do you mean to tell me that IN A WAR their communication networks aren't encrypted or that its users are too inept not to take precautions? The Iranians seem very smart and advanced in producing ballistic missiles and aiming them with precision, so why this glaring lapse when it comes to protecting top-ranking people like the head of intelligence?

Keith speculates that there aren't that many who have been assassinated -- but the question is why any at all? Has the entire social and military structure been so infiltrated that nothing can be done? I remain deeply baffled by this lapse -- even demolishing entire apartment buildings and killing 50 people to get one doesn't address the basic problem.

...even demolishing entire apartment buildings and killing 50 people to get one doesn't address the basic problem."

I have little doubt that anything gets by Mossad, and the supposed online security services everywhere are peppered with their ex-employees.

BUT Perhaps the basic problem is publicly available information?

The reason I mentioned that case was that with three separate hit-sites it seems unlikely his phone was used to target him. However you could find easily enough from public info or with very little digging the location of near anyone's home, and if within easy travelling distance nearby, target parents homes and in-laws too.

-People are family orientated so those represent likely non-work time locations.

In the First World War, the British and French knew that the Germans were eavesdropping on their field telephones so forbade people from talking about secret matters. Then they had to start eavesdropping on the phone network to identify people ignoring the ban, because the phone was too convenient. The culprits were given a bollocking but stamping it out was almost impossible.

I wouldn't be surprised if people convince themselves that the US-zionazis won't notice them on the phone. As for the number of victims, compared to the size of the state apparat, I doubt there have been that many.

Apropos, who coined the term "targeted assassinations"? There can't be indiscriminate assassinations, can there?
