WASHINGTON, DC: The US State Department’s Rewards for Justice program announced a massive bounty on Friday, March 13, offering up to $10 million for information leading to the identification or location of Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, and other top regime figures.

The reward specifically targeted ten "key leaders" of the Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a group the US maintains plans and instils fear globally.

They won't pay out like the didn't for the traitors that handed over

Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela.

Hey, thanks! The check is in the mail...

Yeah, sure fine, but still unable to secure the Strait of Ormuz.

Iran without its leaders is just a headless corpse without kharg island it’s rotten corpse

Smacks of desperation ?

The best way for the U.S. and Israel to win is if the Iranian government is overthrown from within. Ten million bucks would provide an Iranian general with a very luxurious life in post-Islamic-state Iran. Or he could "disappear," get the best possible plastic surgery, buy a new nationality and start over outside Iran.

That strategy has been tried before, but it hasn't worked out very well for the U.S. Uncle Sam couldn't persuade the top Iraqi military to give up Saddam. I doubt he'll have more luck in Iran.

To add to my previous post-

It has be psychologically upsetting to know there's a $10 million bounty on your life. The targets also have to be fearful for the lives of their families. I imagine the leaders so "honored" will spend more time hiding than doing their jobs. This could interfere with the Iranian war effort, even if no one tries to claim the bounty.

Possibly or will it be considered a badge of honour?

You know there is a pool of 50,000 potential leaders in Iran?

Right now, Kharg Island is doing nothing. It really doesn't matter if its smashed up. It will get fixed, and it will be someone else doing that. Iraq's Al Basrah oil terminal got smashed up. It was soon fixed. The question is how long can Iran hang on (cash reserves), before it brings in Chinese or Indian engineers to build them a new one.

Kharg is an old, well established oil terminal. Iran has another, pretty new, opened in 2012, at Jask on the Gulf of Oman, and has been happily shipping oil.

US puts 10 million bounty on Iran leaders

Imagine the shock & awe in the Western media if Iran put a "10 million bounty" on US leaders? 🤔

So - quid pro quo. The US' actions have consequences unfortunately. I think the the days are over when the US believes it's the only one who can play The Game of Bounties.

"The Iran-aligned Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI) announced Friday a 150 million IQD (about $114K) reward for information on US personnel whereabouts."

"Reports out of the Middle East say a pro-Iranian tribal faction in Iraq has offered a $1 million bounty for the head of a U.S. pilot whose aircraft reportedly went down in southern Iraq."

Imho, this is just heating up. Personally I think offering bounties for the deaths of world leaders and military servicemen is unconscionable, but that's the new game in town and it was started by the United States.

There is one thing you can be sure of with the US - don't trust them as far as you can throw them.....they are compulsive liars.

It's actually a great idea, as money always talks and it's obviously worked over the years. It's called Rewards For Justice, and the best way to weed out those who's only agenda is killing innocents to create fear in a population. The earth doesn't need these scumbags and the best place for all of them is hell. It's not for world leaders or servicemen but terrorists, quite different.

Nothing wrong with your hating wars, but some are necessary as there are those who like to take over countries and peoples, like the Romans. England, Germany, Japan and yes, the US, although the thinking isn't the same with the US as it was with those others. Wanting a country to have a democracy to help it's people is a good idea. The US wants world peace, and it gets involved for that reason, among others involving money, but the bottom line is still peace.

US puts 10 million bounty on Iran leaders

Can one ask for an advanced payment? At least around 75% ?

Send the bounty hunters! 😄

I doubt Iranian leaders would wear that "badge of honor" publicly.

Wanted: Dead or Alive, a U.S. TV series (1958-61) about bounty hunter Josh Randall, helped launch Steve McQueen to Hollywood stardom. Iranian political leaders would be easy game for Randall.
