News24 Political Analyst Joe Siracusa says Iran’s $US30,000 reward for anyone who kills or captures a US soldier is “very chilling”. “We’ve got bounties on half the people in the Middle East that we don’t like,” Mr Siracusa told News24. “I think Saddam Hussein and those people had similar bounties on American servicemen at one time. “It’s pretty normal in that neck of the woods, but it’s still very chilling to know that people are going to pay for your scalp.”
