Iran is getting annoyed
Iran, which has been promoting terrorism abroad for 25 years, is finally getting a taste of its own medicine and it isn't at all happy about it:
I will be sorely disappointed if the reference to "foreign intelligence services" is not a euphamism for "CIA" or "MI6". Why? Because we need some leverage over the mullahs, both so that they give up their nuclear weapons program and so that they back off from their support of the insurgency in Iraq. If they understand that two can play at the subversion game, we will have acquired a bargaining chip that we sorely need.
Iranian Minister of Information Ali Younessi said here Monday that the authorities had found Sunday's fatal bomb explosions in the southwestern city Ahvaz were related to some foreign agents.
"Iranian security forces have tracked down the terrorists who were involved in planting four bombs in Ahvaz Sunday morning," Younessi said, quoted by the official IRNA news agency.
"The Information Ministry has found out links between the bombers and foreign intelligence services, and those behind the terrorist bombing have been identified and some of them arrested," Younessi said.
