BREAKING NEWS - Top Islamic Iran Strategist Captured in Iraq Raid
AntiMullah ^ | Friday Jan 12 | Alan Peters

Friday, January 12, 2007 BREAKING NEWS - !!!

Reports from Tehran state that Iran's top IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps) strategist, Hassan Abbasi, was captured in the recent raid on the Islamic Iran's office in Erbil, Iraq.

Referred to inside Islamic Iran as the Regime's version of Kissinger, Abbasi works directly as special advisor for the dead or dying Supreme Ruler in Iran - Ali Khamenei.

His attitude to the main competitor for the Supreme Leadership position, Hashemi Rafsanjani, as the telephone report elaborated, is "like a knife and cheese", meaning he hates Rafsanjani.

Abbasi has in the past indicated he has already chosen and set up attack capability on a large number of targets inside the USA and said the Islamic regime would wipe out the Western culture - as a whole - and replace it with Islam.

He also runs the "Freedom Organizations" an umbrella group, coordinating and networking every "anti-imperialism" terror group around the globe. Be it the IRA in Ireland or Japanese cults or Puerto Rican gangs in the USA. Anyone who is ready to disrupt their country and governments through acts of terrorism.

As the Islamic Regime's top tactician and strategist, his being found and caught in Iraq comes as little or no surprise when reorganization of the jihadists in Iraq has to be done to meet President Bush's new initiative.

In the past Abbasi was closely linked to the Islamic Regime's former MInister of Defense, Shamkhani and authored much of the plans to block the Persian Gulf as well as plans to insert the Ghods Brigades (Special Forces for overseas operations)into Iraq via the Basra area and the Northern Kurdish borders.

He has long established ties to the Kurds, who cooperate with him as part of the Freedoms Organizations in their quest for a Kurdish homeland.

Was the attack on the US Embassy in Greece a retaliation for this capture? It fits the Freedom Organizations type of activity and no other recent event clearly warrants this attack.

Pure, unfounded speculation: it could be a diversion to cover up or distract from Khamenei's death or even the "nuclear trigger" version of the explosion in the desert near Kerman.

I hope they don't make any deal to send him back to Iran. If the Kurds do that then I would tend to wonder why we should help them as this Abbasi has plans for us and they don't sound too good. Replace western culture with Islam my arse.

I'm not sure that the Kurds have him. The article doesn't really say. I was assuming at first that the U.S. got him but noticed that it wasn't specified so I considered it possible that the Iraqis might be in custody. Whoever has him better lock him up and bleed him for every bit of intel he can give up.

I'm not sure that the Kurds have him.

If we're fortunate, perhaps they only have "part" of him. Here's to hoping...

I couldn't make that out either. I think we have him or at we should.....If the Iraq's or Kurds have him then they ought to let us get everything we can get out of him.

Hassan Abbasi, was captured in the recent raid on the Islamic Iran's office in Erbil, Iraq.

From the WoC news service: "Speaker Pelosi adjourns the House. Heads delegation to Erbil demanding Mr. Abbasi be freed. Blames Bush for escalation and attack on the US Embassy in Greece."

"Senator Kennedy to lead Senate delegation, demands suspension of bombings of liquor stores first."

Yah, it's racist to read it. It's racist to think about it. It's racist to even know it exists.
