The U.S. State Department has announced a $10 million reward for information leading to the identification or capture of five senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) figures.
But there is a glaring problem with Washington’s list.
General Majid Khademi, reportedly included among the targets, was killed in a U.S. strike months ago.
So what exactly is Washington offering a $10 million reward for?
A live target?
An outdated intelligence file?
Or simply a recycled sanctions/rewards list that nobody bothered to update?
If a supposedly high-value U.S. intelligence target was already eliminated months ago, the episode raises serious questions about the accuracy, coordination, and credibility of Washington’s intelligence apparatus.
$10 million for information on a man who may already be dead.
That is either a remarkable intelligence failure—or a remarkably careless bureaucratic one.
