Edition No164 | 21-06-2025 - Next up, is the world about to open the Pandora’s Box of Assassination Escalation? There has been extensive discussion this week of whether it’s going too far to remove a leader from the stage to end a war. In this case, the focus is on Ali Hosseini Khamenei, the second supreme leader of Iran since 1989. Before we dive into this topic, we should indulge in some philosophical and legal contemplation. Assassination is a word that has been extensively used in association with Ukraine’s campaign to take out Russian military personal, allegedly responsible for horrific crimes. In the context of war, it’s not prohibited to target servicing Russian military personnel, and Ukraine shows some restraint in that they are only going after those who are implicated in specific crimes, and not for all associates of the murderous Putin regime. So straight way, let’s distinguish taking out servicing military personal, whatever the context. I do not see these as assassinations, and they will not be addressed here. This episode will exclusively look at the intentional targeting of politicians, technocrats and journalists, which we’ll be referring to as assassination. Based on that definition, we may be entering an uncertain and highly risky era, where the taboo against eliminating leaders is lifted and these acts become normalised.----------Links: https://cepa.org/article/ukraine-cites-mossad-as-assassinations-multiply/https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/assassination-attempt-on-vladimir-putin-russian-official-claims-helicopter-at-epicenter-of-ukraine-drone-attack-101748197603758.htmlhttps://kyivindependent.com/regime-change-in-iran-unacceptable-kremlin-says/https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/hezbollah-warns-assassination-of-irans-supreme-leader-would-have-disastrous-consequences/https://www.lemonde.fr/en/international/article/2025/06/19/israel-iran-despite-the-assassination-of-top-brass-tehran-s-military-is-still-operational_6742515_4.htmlhttps://kyivindependent.com/people-were-killed-inside-presidential-office-zelensky-reveals-details-of-russias-assassination-attempts-in-2022/https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/russian-agent-charged-in-poland-over-plot-1747762693.htmlhttps://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2025/04/30/7509972/https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/russia-chechnya-ramzan-kadyrov-blood-feud-assassination-lawmakers-rcna174820https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2024-11-22/putin-s-assassination-targets-revealed-in-declassified-memo----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.
