I think the Joan is more of a Cavalier crowd.
Yet strangely, in its in-depth write-up of the assassination, the Times seemed to memorialize Fakhrizadeh, speaking of him in a positive light and describing him as a lover of poetry and seaside vacations.
"Despite his prominent position in Iran's military establishment, Mr. Fakhrizadeh wanted to live a normal life," the Times reported. "He craved small domestic pleasures: reading Persian poetry, taking his family to the seashore, going for drives in the countryside."
I read the NYT piece, and this right here is bullshit and another example of why RWNJ media is...nuts. The entire point of that passage is that Fakhrizadeh repeatedly rebuffed efforts to give him better security (including an armored vehicle) because he wanted to be "normal", Mossad knew this and took full advantage of it. The article describes him as stubborn.
The paragraph following the one The RWNJ Blaze quoted: "And, disregarding the advice of his security team, he often drove his own car to Absard instead of having bodyguards drive him in an armored vehicle. It was a serious breach of security protocol, but he insisted. So shortly after noon on Friday, Nov. 27, he slipped behind the wheel of his black Nissan Teana* sedan, his wife in the passenger seat beside him, and hit the road."
A Teana is basically an Altima, so yeah he got lit up lol.
I also found this part of the NYT piece interesting: "Most of his professional life was top secret, better known to the Mossad than to most Iranians. His career may have been a mystery even to his children. His sons said in a television interview that they had tried to piece together what their father did based on his sporadic comments. They said they had guessed that he was involved in the production of medical drugs."
It's really something....had he not wanted to appear and act so average he might still be alive. Was it a real desire to live a normal life? Or was it hubris that he couldn't get hit? Either way, the fvcker's dead.
