Former head of the Mossad: the assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei was a huge mistake Tamir Pardo, the former head of the Mossad, sharply criticized Netanyahu's policy towards Iran and described the assassination of the saintly Ayatollah Seyed Ali Husseini Khamenei at the beginning of the Ramadan war as a serious and strategic failure and a huge mistake. Pardo emphasized that the operation to eliminate the leader of Iran and the political elements in that country was entirely Israeli, and not a joint Israeli-American operation. According to him, "Whoever thinks that removing a leader can destroy a country and its capabilities is very wrong. I believe that the assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei was a huge mistake. He warned: "We have opened the way for future generations to take revenge; because now it has become legitimate for Israel, which sees us as a diabolical enemy, to attempt to assassinate senior Israelis." He added: "The action we started brought the Revolutionary Guards to a much stronger position than before." We violated the balance of power, not knowing who would get more power; And whoever took power is a much more dangerous person."
