Ex-CIA chief says Qassem Soleimani was his arch 'nemisis'
|
| Suuuure he was. That’s why President Obama made his little deal with Iran. |
 [ALMASDARNEWS] Former Central Intelligence Agency director John Brennan
...director of the CIA under the Obama administration. One of the deeper dwelling denizens of the Deep State, probably the guy who lit the match that launched the Russiagate coup attempt...
, who will be remembered by many as a defender of the use of "enhanced interrogation" practices on al-Qaeda* suspects, has recently grabbed worldwide attention after slamming the November killing of Iranian nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh as "a criminal act."
The ex-CIA director under the Barack B.O. regime, John Brennan, said during the interview with Israel’s Haaretz that late Iranian Top General Qasem Soleimani was his personal "nemesis" during his work for the agency.

Brennan, however, slammed the liquidation of the senior general, who was murdered in a Trump-authorised dronezap in Iraq in January this year. According to the former Obama staffer, the killing of "a senior Iranian government official" was a "very arbitrary and dangerous" act which came "without any type of international, lawful basis, without being at war with Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and without a Security Council decision."
"I’ve said, and I was criticised for it, that I was not supportive at all of the US strike against Soleimani. I do not disagree that Soleimani had blood on his hands: He was responsible for supporting terrorist groups, as well as for actions they carried out," Brennan explained.
"He was a very dangerous actor, but again, for the United States to kill a bigwig of a foreign country is not in keeping with its commitments to the international system."
Former CIA chief has expressed remorse for the fact that Soleimani’s liquidation was applauded in the United States "on both sides of the political aisle", ignoring the fact that Trump administration had basically violated the international standards and norms with the move.
Speaking to the newspaper via Skype, Brennan argued that he "wouldn’t be surprised" to find out that Israel "encouraged or even provided some support for the operation."
Brennan’s interview was conducted shortly before another high-profile liquidation of an Iranian bigwig, nuclear physicist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, near Tehran late last month.
On 27 November, Fakhrizadeh, who was dubbed by Israel as "head of Iran’s nuclear weapons programme", was fatally maimed in a gun and kaboom in a road ambush near Absard town and later died in hospital. No group has grabbed credit for the attack, but Iranian leadership has wholeheartedly blamed the scientist’s death on Israel.
Shortly after the assault, John Brennan took to Twitter to criticize the killing as a "criminal" and "highly reckless" act that would endanger the region’s stability.
 "Iranian leaders would be wise to wait for the return of responsible American leadership on the global stage & to resist the urge to respond against perceived culprits," he wrote on 27 November.
His comments prompted a strong response from Republican Senator for Texas, Ted Cruz;
...US Senator from Texas. Republican contender for president in 2016, his stiff and abrasive manner earned him the title most hated man in the Senate. After a close win over Beto O'Rourke , who tried to out-Lastino him, he grew a beard and let his biting wit shine through. Cruz's comments have been known to leave life-threatening wounds at better than forty feet...
, who accused the Obama-era official of siding with "Iranian zealots". Brennan replied by suggesting instead that Cruz’s approach to the national security matters was "lawless" and "simple-minded".
