GOOGLE GEMINI: QUESTION: What Iranian terror attack killed Americans on US Soil? Or anywhere else? ANSWER: While there have been high-profile Iranian-backed plots on U.S. soil, no large-scale terrorist attack by the Iranian government has successfully killed Americans within the United States. However, Iran has been directly or indirectly linked to the deaths of hundreds of Americans through its proxies in other countries. 1. Attacks on U.S. Soil (Plots and Assassinations) The U.S. government has intercepted several major plots on American soil, but most did not result in mass casualties: 1980 Assassination of Ali Akbar Tabatabaei: An Iranian dissident was shot and killed in Bethesda, Maryland, by David Belfield (Dawud Salahuddin), an American convert to Islam who was working for the Iranian government. This is considered one of the few successful state-sponsored assassinations by Iran on U.S. soil. 2011 Saudi Ambassador Assassination Plot: The FBI disrupted a plot by the Iranian Quds Force to assassinate the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to the U.S. by bombing a restaurant in Washington, D.C. No Americans were killed, but the DOJ noted the attack could have caused significant collateral damage. 2024 Trump Assassination Plot: Recently, an Iranian national was charged in a plot to assassinate Donald Trump, which U.S. officials described as part of a broader Iranian effort to target former American officials. 2. Major Attacks Abroad (Highest Casualties) The vast majority of American lives lost to Iranian-backed terrorism have been overseas, primarily through proxies like Hezbollah or Hamas: Year Event Location American Deaths 1983 Beirut Barracks Bombing Lebanon 241 (mostly Marines) 1983 U.S. Embassy Bombing Lebanon 17 1996 Khobar Towers Bombing Saudi Arabia 19 1998 U.S. Embassy Bombings Kenya/Tanzania 12 (Hezbollah assisted Al-Qaeda) 2003-2011 Iraq War Proxy Attacks Iraq 600+ (via EFPs and militias) 2023 October 7 Hamas Attack Israel 46 2024 Tower 22 Drone Strike Jordan 3 Key Incidents: 1983 Beirut Barracks: This remains the deadliest single-day loss of life for the U.S. Marine Corps since Iwo Jima. U.S. courts later ruled that Iran was legally responsible for providing the financial and logistical support to Hezbollah for the attack. The Iraq War: The U.S. Department of Defense officially attributed the deaths of at least 603 U.S. service members to Iran-backed militias in Iraq, largely due to the use of Explosively Formed Penetrators (EFPs)—specialized roadside bombs provided by the IRGC. October 7th Massacre: While Hamas led the attack, the U.S. and Israeli intelligence communities have highlighted Iran's long-standing funding and training of Hamas, which resulted in the deaths of 46 U.S. citizens. 3. Notable Individual Deaths William Buckley (1985): The CIA station chief in Beirut was kidnapped and tortured to death by the Iran-backed Islamic Jihad Organization. Robert Levinson (2007): A former FBI agent who disappeared in Iran; the U.S. government concluded in 2020 that he likely died in Iranian custody. TWA Flight 847 (1985): Hezbollah hijackers murdered U.S. Navy diver Robert Stethem and threw his body onto the tarmac in Beirut.
So, for $2B/day, we get revenge. Buckley was NOT tortured by Iranians but by Palestinians and he was CIA chief of station aka: Spy. Not a non-combatant. Levinson was in Iran and got caught. He was NOT a tourist (FBI). Hezbollah are Lebanese not Iranians so lets attack Lebanon. TWA Flight 847 again, Lebanese. 9/7 MASSACRE: HAMAS again NOT Iranians. Gulf War I? Seriously? Just stop. 1983? Almost 43 years ago and again, Lebanese not Iranians. Now all these groups have Iranian backing, but there are Nuclear powers that also have proxies like NoKor for starters. Wanna guess why Trump hasn't attacked NoKor yet and they have ICBMs that can reach CONUS? You have yet to provide ONE INSTANCE OF DIRECT killing of US non-combatants by Iranians. OTOH, Iranian non-combatants are dying daily while War mongers celebrate more death on behalf of Israel. I'm surprised you didn't drag out 9/11 because? They were Saudis who are Trump's "friends".
All you did was say that you don't blame the Iranian government for the terrorist proxies they funded. There's a flaw there, but it's not with the artificial intelligence.
The day a maga is honest , and admits they were not concerned with Iran until trump told them to be. And admits they voted on no new wars, I’ll be impressed
Oh, im against further action in Iran. I just don't pretend war in Iran isn't justified. It is more than justified.
How is it justified? Past proxie assumptions , threats on dear orange leader, or the nukes that they don’t have, that we destroyed any capability of back in June, or they hurt bibi the terrorists feelings? All these things that Arab and Muslim countries get blamed for , wouldn’t surprise me one bit to have massad prints all over .
The flaw lies in the entire thought process behind this "war". The flaw is the slaughter of 150 Iranian non-combatant children and an unknown number of civilians The flaw is a POTUS who is losing his mind daily while threatening War Crimes trying to distract from being associated with the most heinous Pedophile in modern history. Blaming the Iranian government is one thing. Slaughtering Iranian civilians and children while committing War Crimes is quite another. Trump is slowly morphing into the Emperor Caligula.
Damn it was the under. Lets see if he strait is actually fully open. Government will tell us it is, gas prices will tell true story.
