Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump’s daughter, was reportedly at the center of an assassination plot involving a terrorist who sources say was trained by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Reports claim the suspect, a 32-year-old Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood AI-Saadi who had supposedly promised to kill Ivanka and that he also carried a kind of layout or map of her Florida home. Authorities say they believe this alleged plot was linked to revenge for the 2020 US drone strike in Baghdad which killed top Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani
Why Was Ivanka Trump Assassination Plot Planned?
Ivanka Trump reportedly was targeted as part of a revenge plan against President Donald Trump’s family. Officials suggest that the Iraqi national AI-Saadi was seeking payback not just randomly but especially because of the killing of Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani. He was killed in a US drone strike in Baghdad nearly six years ago.
“After Qasem was killed, he [Al-Saadi] went around telling people ‘we need to kill Ivanka to burn down the house of Trump the way he burned down our house,” The Post reported a former deputy military attaché in the Iraqi embassy said.
“We heard that he had a plan of Ivanka’s house in Florida,” Qanbar added. A second source also confirmed Al-Saadi’s plot to kill Ivanka.
Who Is Al-Saadi? Suspect Linked to Ivanka Trump Threats
Al-Saadi reportedly shared a map on X, showing the Florida region where Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner have their $24 million home. With the photo he added a menacing note in Arabic in which he was telling Americans that even strong security and the Secret Service won’t be enough to safeguard them, and the message said, “revenge is only a matter of time.”
US officials say Al-Saadi was a senior person linked to Iraq-Iran terror networks. He was arrested in Turkey on May 15 then later transported to the United States. He is now facing charges connected to 18 separate attacks and attempted attacks throughout Europe and America.
According to the US Department of Justice, he was allegedly behind multiple attacks aimed at American and Jewish places. These included a firebomb incident at the Bank of New York Mellon in Amsterdam, a stabbing in London, and a shooting near the US.
