Number of Americans on US soil killed by Iran since the Islamic Revolution: 0
Ai disagrees.
Yes, there have been recent incidents in the United States involving shootings with connections to Iran, though these are typically linked to murder-for-hire plots, terrorism investigations, or extreme ideological motives rather than random acts of violence by Iranian nationals.
Based on March 2026 reports, law enforcement has investigated the following:
- Austin, Texas Bar Shooting (March 2026): A gunman, identified as 53-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen Ndiaga Diagne (born in Senegal), killed two people and wounded over a dozen others in a mass shooting at an Austin bar. According to reports, the shooter wore a shirt with an Iranian flag design and a “Property of Allah” hoodie. Investigators found an Iranian flag and pictures of Iranian leaders at his home and are investigating the incident as a “potential act of terrorism” related to tensions with Iran.
- Murder-for-Hire Plot (Jan 2024): The U.S. Department of Justice charged an Iranian man, Naji Sharifi Zindashti, along with two Canadian nationals, in a conspiracy to murder two residents in Maryland. The plot was part of a broader, ongoing effort by Iranian intelligence to target dissidents on U.S. soil.
- Assassination Plot Against Critic (Jan 2023): Three men were arrested in a plot to assassinate a prominent U.S.-based Iranian journalist and activist who has been a vocal critic of the Iranian regime.
- San Jose Shooting (May 2021): While not a perpetrator, a man of Iranian origin, Abdul Wahab Alaghemandab, was identified as one of the victims in a shooting spree at a California transportation facility.

- Assassination Plots: The U.S. Department of Justice has charged individuals with conducting assassination plots on behalf of Iran, including a 2011 plot to murder the Saudi Ambassador to the U.S. in Washington D.C., and several schemes targeting Iranian-American dissidents and former U.S. officials, including plotted attacks against Donald Trump in 2024.
- Kidnapping Plots: In 2021, an IRGC-directed scheme to kidnap an Iranian-American journalist in New York was foiled.
- Worldwide Casualties: Iran and its proxies are responsible for more than 1,000 American service member and civilian deaths outside the U.S., primarily in the Middle East. This includes over 600 U.S. troop deaths in Iraq between 2003-2011 due to Iranian-supplied weapons, the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing (241 U.S. personnel), and the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing (19 U.S. airmen).
It is important to note that many of these cases involve efforts by the Iranian government to target its critics who have emigrated to the United States.
Michele, do you even read the stuff you post? AI listed one US citizen, two plots (no murder) and one case where the Iranian was a victim. lol.
And I said Iran, not Iranians, anyway. I obviously meant the Iranian government.
Yes. I saw that and chose to leave it in so that you wouldn’t think I was withholding information deliberately to strengthen my point against you.
And I replied with a compelling argument against the Iranian government, which you ignored, as always.
There was nothing compelling about what you posted. I repeat: Number of Americans on US soil killed by Iran since the Islamic Revolution: 0
It’s been a rough few years for B.C. Hells Angel and Wolfpack gangster Damion Ryan.
A would-be hitman tried to kill him in the food court at Vancouver Airport in April 2015.
Since then, he’s been charged in the U.S. with agreeing to send hitmen to kill two Iranian dissidents. He was convicted in Manitoba of trafficking cocaine, methamphetamine and fentanyl. He was named as a defendant in a B.C. government lawsuit targeting three Hells Angels clubhouses.
And now he has been charged in Ontario with first-degree murder in connection with a January 2021 slaying in Bolton, about 50 kilometres northwest of Toronto.
Ontario Provincial Police announced the new charges against Ryan, 45, on April 1. He is set to make a first appearance in an Ottawa courtroom on April 13.

Meanwhile Ryan’s sentencing hearing in the drug trafficking conspiracy is due to begin in Winnipeg on May 6, after his conviction on five counts in December 2025.
The new charges against Ryan also include counts of attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder in 2020 and 2021.
The OPP said they relate to a shooting on Nov. 12, 2020, on Steeles Avenue West in Vaughan. One person was injured and taken to hospital.
Then on Jan. 18, 2021, in the early afternoon, OPP officers were called about a shooting on Harvest Moon Drive in Bolton.
“Two people sustained gunshot wounds inside the home, including the victim from the Vaughan incident,” the OPP news release said.
Giovanni Costa, 65, was found dead at the scene. His son Michael was the target of the murder conspiracy but survived both attempts on his life.
Ryan was the fifth person charged. Two others charged, Filmon Fesshaghirgis, 27, and Waheed Barakziye, 48, remain fugitives.

“With a fifth person arrested, the OPP’s investigation continues as officers work to identify the whereabouts of two wanted individuals. If anyone has any information, we urge you to contact police immediately,” OPP Detective Inspector Steven Martell said in the release.Also charged in the case are Christopher Brown, of Barrie, Neheniah Tirfe, of Toronto.
Ryan, who grew up in east Vancouver, was wounded in a 2010 shooting at a restaurant on Oak Street. He eventually moved to Ottawa, where he was a member of Nomads chapter of the Hells Angels before it was disbanded over an internal dispute.
He then joined the biker gang’s Attica, Greece chapter, before transferring back to B.C. to join the Haney chapter, of which his uncle is a long-time member.
Ryan was arrested in February 2022 at an Ottawa house once owned by the family of fellow Wolfpack gangster Rabih Alkhalil on the Manitoba drug conspiracy charges. Alkhalil has been convicted of two counts of murder in both Ontario and B.C.While in custody awaiting trial, Ryan was charged in January 2024 in the U.S. with having a role in the unsuccessful murder plot targeting the unnamed Iranian dissidents. The indictment in the case alleges Ryan was working for Iranian drug lord Naji Zindashti — on orders from the Iranian government — and alleges he was recorded on an encrypted device agreeing to put together a team to do the hit for US$350,000, plus $20,000 in expenses.

The 2010 shooting that Damion Ryan was in 10 ppl were wounded it happened in a restaurant in Vancouver.
Good. Let them all die.
Interesting read. I thought it was amusing that it took a criminal, Agent 66, to bring him to justice.
Well, okay. I guess if our government refuses to hold men accountable, we can hold women accountable.

Meanwhile, B.C.’s director of civil forfeiture also filed a lawsuit against the Surrey property owners, Gurbinder Singh and Kulwant Kaur Johal, as well as the owners of Hells Angels clubhouses in Mission and Pitt Meadows.
The lawsuit, filed in December 2025, says all three properties should be forfeited to the B.C. government for their links to “a criminal organization.”
The owners of all three clubhouse properties have filed statements of defence denying the allegations.
Sangha said that while the Hardside clubhouse has closed, the property it had rented is again for lease by its owners and “remains subject to an ongoing CFO seizure.” (Good. !)
The new Westside chapter has opened apparently by having the existing Nanaimo chapter split in two.
