TEHRAN (Mehr News Agency) Armed Forces General Headquarters said in a statement on Tuesday that the U.S. should be considered as an accomplice in the killing of the Palestinian spiritual leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin on Monday.
The Zionist state terrorism, which is the worst kind of terrorism in the world, is not possible without the U.S. backing, the statement said.
Undoubtedly, Yassins martyrdom will give more power to the Palestinian peoples resistance against occupation, added the statement.
Zionist sources said Monday prime minister Ariel Sharon personally ordered and monitored the helicopter attack on the paralyzed cleric.

Our own beloved America is the New Jerusalem, not the Zionist mini-state of Israel.

If the guy was a spiritual leader, why was he replaced with a successor in mere hours? Or do stupid ignorant people just become spiritually led by the next guy in line at the local Hammas executive bullpen?
Do Arafat now too. It's the only way to honestly deal with terrorist combatants. Arabs can understand only brutal strength or cowering weakness. There is no inbetween.

Why is the "Armed Forces General Headquarters" issuing the statement? What is their relationship with the regime? Is there a political/religious commissar overseeing a traditional, non-fanatic military?

I recommend that they just fly their helicopters over Arafat's compound night and day. Fear can cause all sorts of things.
