[Balthazar]

“On behalf of the people of Kerman Province, we will pay a 3 million dollar award in cash to whoever kills Trump,” Hamzeh said in a speech to fellow lawmakers on Tuesday, as quoted by Iranian news outlets.

This is nothing but crazy talk.    I think he himself knows that this is not possible for anyone.

Iranian MP Hamzeh in the near future:

I think he should keep that money in case he need to leave the country coz the people are getting rid of their politicians. He should keep it safe in a bank.

Oh wait, the economy sucks so bad that their stock exchange is booming only coz the money is losing value so fast you can't even keep you money in the bank for safety anymore and stocks is now the "safe" way of keeping money.

It is definitely intriguing to see acts like this from a country like Iran who had its fair share of problems with the United States in the past couple of years. Especially the timing after how Pentagon announced that they have 11 wounded soldiers from the attack carried out by the Iranian Army just a few weeks back.

But I digress. I really think that there are, in both countries and even countries that are not really related to the situation at hand, who are willing to wage war to cause a global crisis. This can be an economical one or just something short of World War 3 throughout the Middle East.

Alas, for a member of parliament to officially put a "bounty" on a person who is literally the leader of one of the strongest countries in the world in various different aspects, is something to result in some heat.

Yea good luck with that. This is not something that could actually be enforced. Not to mention that both the offering this award, and actually doing, or even trying to do what he is wanting done would be an act of War against the US, and all but assures the current Iran government would be quickly toppled.

LOL, the guy's delusional. If Iran wasn't so corrupt they should probably ask where he's getting all these money from anyway.

Guy's riding the recent wave of hate against America but I don't think it'll result to anything good for his career. Trying to rile up Iranians against the US is like trying to get the Chinese contemptuous of the Vietnamese - it gets old fast.
