This is second visit by the Qatari delegation to Tehran within just a few days amid intensified behind-the-scenes diplomacy.

“This Deal will include, importantly, NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN!” he wrote on his Truth Social platform.

Jihadists appear caught offguard by release of Steven Sotloff video
(September 2, 2014)
The video of Steven Sotloff‘s apparent murder appears to have been found by a private US intelligence firm before it could be released by the Islamic State.
News of Mr Sotloff‘s death was broken by the SITE Intelligence group, a private company that monitors jihadist activity and has close ties to the American intelligence community.
The group‘s analysts found the video on what a spokesman described as „a file-sharing site“ and send it out to its subscriber list. SITE‘s subscribers include government officials, journalists and academics involved in analysing terrorism.
Leak Severed a Link to Al-Qaeda‘s Secrets
(October 9, 2007)
The al-Qaeda video aired on Sept. 7 attracted international attention as the first new video message from the group‘s leader in three years. In it, a dark-bearded bin Laden urges Americans to convert to Islam and predicts failure for the Bush administration in Iraq and Afghanistan. The video was aired on hundreds of Western news Web sites nearly a full day before its release by a distribution company linked to al-Qaeda.
Computer logs and records reviewed by The Washington Post support SITE‘s claim that it snatched the video from al-Qaeda days beforehand. Katz requested that the precise date and details of the acquisition not be made public, saying such disclosures could reveal sensitive details about the company‘s methods.
Von Zawahiri zu Spiegel Online
(January 23, 2007)
Das „SITE-Institut“ erklärt übrigens auf seiner website, daß Geheimagenten meistens zu doof seien, Zeitung zu lesen oder sonstirgendwas von Recherche zu verstehen.
Hmm..
Na, jedenfalls würde man ihnen die Arbeit abnehmen, mit allerlei Untersuchungen finanzieller Zusammenhänge, Identifizierungen, öffentliche Quellen anzapfen, blabla.
Warum sie es dann in all den Jahren zwar schaffen, Sawahiri-Botschaften abzufangen, aber nicht wissen, von wem die kommen und wohin die gehen, sagt dieses Institut des Vertrauens nicht.
Man stelle sich mal jemand auf einem Baseballfeld vor, der mit verbundenen Augen (fröhlich vor sich hin pfeifend) locker die Hand nach oben hält (nachdem er vorher nicht etwa wie beknackt über den Platz gesprintet ist, nein, nein, sondern einfach nur dagestanden hat, natürlich ohne was zu sehen) und dann fröhlich ruft:“ I got it!“ und einen Ball in der Hand hält.
Mal ehrlich – zu meiner Zeit hätte man ihn erstmal gefragt, wie viele er davon noch auf Tasche hat.
Lebanese Civil War
Among the consequences of the war was the Syrian occupation of Lebanon until 2005; the Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon until 2000; the creation of the Hezbollah, a Shiʿi militia formed to confront Israel and later adapted into a political party and social welfare network; the expulsion of the PLO from Lebanon; and the rebuilding of Lebanon by a handful of businessmen, including the two-time prime minister (1992–98; 2000–04) Rafic al-Hariri. (…)
With Palestinian forces continuing to conduct cross-border raids into Israel, Israel launched a major reprisal attack in March 1978, sending troops into the south of Lebanon as far as the Litani River. The resulting conflict led to the establishment of the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL)—a peacekeeping force meant to secure Israeli withdrawal and support the return of Lebanese authority in the south—as well as to the creation of the South Lebanese Army (SLA)—a militia led by Saad Haddad and armed and financed by Israel to function as a proxy militia under Lebanese Christian command.
