Ivanka Trump Targeted For Assassination in Iranian Regime's Twisted Plot

WASHINGTON, May 23: US authorities have charged an Iraqi national accused of links to Iran-backed militias and multiple attacks in Europe and North America, with reports alleging he also plotted to assassinate Ivanka Trump in retaliation for the 2020 killing of Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani.

According to reports, 32-year-old Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi was arrested in Turkey on May 15 and extradited to the United States, where federal prosecutors accuse him of orchestrating or supporting 18 attacks and attempted attacks targeting US and Jewish-linked sites across Europe and North America.

Sources cited by the New York Post claimed Al-Saadi had pledged to kill Ivanka Trump and allegedly possessed a blueprint of her Florida residence shared with husband Jared Kushner. The alleged plot was described as revenge for the US drone strike in Baghdad that killed Soleimani in January 2020.

Former Iraqi embassy military attaché Entifadh Qanbar told the newspaper that Al-Saadi openly spoke of targeting the Trump family after Soleimani’s death, allegedly saying, “we need to kill Ivanka to burn down the house of Trump the way he burned down our house.”

The report also alleged Al-Saadi posted a map online showing the area of Ivanka Trump’s Florida home alongside Arabic threats warning that “neither your palaces nor the Secret Service will protect you.”

US authorities allege Al-Saadi was involved in attacks including the firebombing of a bank in Amsterdam, a shooting at the US consulate building in Toronto, and assaults against Jewish targets in London, Belgium and the Netherlands.

Investigators say the suspect maintained ties with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Kata’ib Hizballah and Lebanese Hezbollah. Analysts cited in the report claimed he had longstanding connections with Soleimani and later with his successor, IRGC Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani.

Al-Saadi is currently being held in solitary confinement at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn pending further court proceedings.
