In 1994, a bomb destroyed the AMIA Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, killing 85 people and wounding hundreds in the deadliest terrorist attack in Argentina’s history.
Argentine prosecutors later concluded the attack was planned, financed, and directed by the Islamic Republic of Iran and carried out by Hezbollah. The target was not military or governmental. It was a Jewish community center.
For three decades, no one was held accountable. Not because the evidence was lacking, but because political will was.
That changed under President Javier Milei. Argentina reopened the case, reactivated international arrest notices, designated terror organizations, and in 2024, a federal court ruled that the AMIA bombing was organized, financed, and executed under the direction of the Iranian state.
This video explains why that ruling matters today. The terror network behind the attack never disappeared. It adapted and expanded across Latin America.
Once you understand that history, the question is no longer just about the past. It is about what happens when those networks intersect with borders, criminal organizations, and the United States.
