Blair: Iran or Hezbollah Involved in Iraq
LONDON - Prime Minister Tony said Thursday that new explosive devices used against coalition forces in Iraq lead us either to Iranian elements or to Hezbollah." While stressing that Britain "cannot be sure" about Iran's possible role, the prime minister linked the issue to the diplomatic confrontation between Tehran and Western nations over Iran's nuclear program. On Wednesday, British Press Association reported that a senior government official said Britain believed Iran's Revolutionary Guard supplied explosives technology to insurgents in Iraq that was used to kill eight British soldiers over the summer. Tehran's Foreign Ministry dismissed the accusations Wednesday, with a spokesman saying Britain should provide evidence of its claims, according to the official Islamic Republic News Agency.
"We know that the devices are of a similar nature to those used by Hezbollah, and there are certain pieces of information that lead us back to Iran," Blair said. "But I'm not saying any more than that we cannot be sure of this." He continued, "What is clear is that there have been new explosive devices used, not just against British troops but elsewhere in Iraq. The particular nature of those devices lead us either to Iranian elements or to Hezbollah, because they are similar to the devices used by Hezbollah." Hezbollah was formed in 1982 with Iranian backing during Israel's invasion of Lebanon. It has been linked to the 1983 bombing of U.S. Marine barracks in Lebanon. Iran is estimated to provide it with $10 million-$20 million monthly.
Well ...Surprise, Surprise - and it was liberal rhetoric that forced the rest of us to dismiss the term "axis of evil" from common use - too early I think - yes, I wish we lived in the world where 9/11 had never happened, where people would not hate each other so much to the point where they are ready to die just for opportunity to harm their enemy - but that is socialist utopia - and the scary fact is that liberals DO mentally inhabit this nonexistentt place. Liberal mind is far in a la-la land, hiding from the grim realities of today's world, just like the human victims in the movie "Matrix", and some of them are far beyond any point of recovery. But i digress again, point is Iran, North Korea and other enemies of freedom now that they are on a timetable and the clock is ticking down for them to straighten up, or IRAN, HERE WE COME.
