(Jewish Group) Iran 'mapping' Jews in diaspora for kill squads
Iran has been “mapping” the Jewish diaspora for an assassination campaign that will be triggered if Israel attacks its nuclear facilities, a Jewish woman who met Ayatollah Khamenei has told the JC.
The chilling plan, disclosed at a high-level meeting in Tehran, involved identifying key Jewish figures and determining “how to strike and where”.
The hit squads would be deployed if Israel ever attacked Iran, she was told, so “the diaspora would have a very nasty surprise”.
The revenge plot was revealed to Catherine Perez-Shakdam, one of the few Westerners to be granted an audience with Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

While it certainly could be nothing more than bluster on the part of the Iranian government, the possibility is always there. When it comes to threats against Jews, though, I find more and more people "doubting" the veracity of the threats; basically, we have to be dead first then they take the threat seriously, but it is always late for us. Some places are definitely better than others. Sadly, it is not just the right anymore.
I posted this awhile back when it happened (I think), but when I went to a local pride event here in Oklahoma, there was a booth with a variety of pride flags, stickers, etc. Some of those stickers were with the actual pride flag with a cross on it, a Hindu symbol, a symbol of Islam, and a Wiccan symbol. I asked if there was one with a Star of David, and the owner told me they had to pull them all because people were complaining about it. Keep in mind, this was a Star of David imposed over the pride flag and not a pride flag merged with an Israeli flag.

The fact that the former is pulled from shelves because of the Star of David is pure bigotry, but it is "accepted" by many as not a form of bigotry to do so.
