Zero Hedge: A $2bn Saudi Plan To Assassinate Iran's Leaders Involved Erik Prince And The Trump Transition Team
So maybe the Iranians do have much to be paranoid about. An explosive New York Times story citing multiple unnamed sources familiar with the matter details how top Saudi intelligence officials conspired to assassinate Iranian leaders — including Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) Quds force commander Qassim Suleimani — in a plot wherein the Saudis mulled using private contractors, and even approached Erik Prince, the former head of Blackwater and at the time adviser to the Trump transition team.
The discussions took place around two years before the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi as MbS was still deputy crown prince and defense minister, and was in the midst of ramping up intelligence operations outside the kingdom.

You don't watch enough movies.
It's not about the assassination, it's about the fact that the entire regime will be behind this assassin, waiting with torture equipment. Likely, the person who does it has to be top notch (someone who earns millions a year in this job, never was caught etc) and it may require him/her to retire, pay off a lot of people in the process, use tons of middle man, etc.
It's not unlikely that you get caught for doing this, so the sum must offset the consequences. No one cares if some schmuck gets whacked (unless connected, ofc), and this target has a lot of connections. His facebook profile gets poked like at least 20 times a day and what not ;)
Also, keep in mind it will likely be a team who has to do the job (and then most of the team will die in car crashes, or they will be shot by a guy with a joker mask o_O)
