“Anyone who kills or captures and hands over an invading American military personnel will receive a reward equivalent to $30,000 or 5 billion tomans from the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Army. Courageous Iranian women who carry out such an action will receive double the reward.” - IRAN'S ARMY CHIEF AMIR HATAMI 

[IRAN BOUNTY KILLING CAPTURE US SOLDIERS] With tensions rapidly increasing in West Asia as the war between the American and Iran continues, the Iranian government has issued a bounty on the heads of all American soldiers in the excess of $30,000 if they are captured dead or alive, and $60,000 for any Iranian woman who captures or kills an American soldier. While this sounds like something out of a 1950's American Western film, it is an extreme incentive for new military academy students as they prepare to join their governments fight of resistance against the Americans. It should be noted that currently there are no American soldiers deployed on the ground in Iran.

To date, there is no shortage of Iranian citizens that wish to execute the bounty on the behalf of the Iranian government. It appears that due to the Americans unwillingness to maintain their promises and enter into an agreement in which the Iranians feel satisfied, the Iranian government has called for the Americans to not only leave West Asia, but to not enter the Gulf of Oman, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Persian Gulf. Many people within the international community are taking the position that while the Trump Administration is both desperate for a win, it is as equally desperate for an off ramp to exit its war of choice on the behalf of Israel on Iran.

Currently the Israeli government has been largely silent on the war between America and Iran, and it suggests to many geopolitical pendants that Israel has effectively left the Americans “holding the bag” when it comes to how it executes its war on Iran. With talks of the Trump Administration increasing the number of sanctions on Iran, geopolitical analysts all seem to agree on one thing; sanctions on Iran simply do not and will not work as they have not worked effectively in the last 40 years. The Trump Administration has been toying with the notion of deploying the U.S. military inside Iran, but war strategists have both warned him not to and stressed that the deployment of the U.S. military to mainland Iran will result in the catastrophic deaths of thousands of American soldiers.
