No allegiances here. ISIS are Sunni terrorists, Iran is mostly in bed with Shi’ite terrorists. No love lost.

The guys running Iran are in a minority of the population. The government had to bring in mercenaries to control the disgruntled sectors of the country. This being possibly a demonstration of those angry sectors, and what they can affect.

Crated up in downtown Teheran? That would be poetic justice.

It’s approaching 2:30AM local time in Tehran ... probably no hard news will be forthcoming for another four or five hours.

To: Dave346; All
Well it is DEBKA....but if true the question is who? Was it ISIS? Israel? Saudi Arabia?
