    Why would they have to? The second the assassin revealed themselves to collect, they would be the most hunted person on the planet.

          I’m assuming a scenario where the perpetrators are killed on the scene, and the actual masterminds are already in Iran or in Iranian proxy territory, and for some time after the attack, their identities unknown to the west.

          It’s certainly not beyond Iran and its proxies to keep someone hidden in total luxury for the rest of their life.

          In a scenario where the perpetrators or planners have somehow made it to Iran and are known to the West, no, for sure, sovereignty will not stop the West from getting them.

            And yet no one’s tried to collect the bounty yet as far as we know. And clearly not because of the skill and diligence of the United States Secret Service.
