Tehran, Iran, Jul. 15 One of Irans most powerful clerics hinted during the Friday prayers sermon in Tehran today that last weeks London bombings could have been the work of the United Kingdom government.
Addressing worshippers at the site of Tehran University, Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, who heads the powerful Guardian Council, the unelected constitutional watchdog, said, At times they blame this [London bombings] as the work of AlQaeda. AlQaeda means [United States President George W.] Bush and [British Prime Minister Tony] Blair who were the mothers of AlQaeda and brought to life this illegitimate child.
There exists the possibility that the British government carried out this work, like the possibility [of American involvement] in the September 11 affair, since they themselves stand to benefit the most, Jannati said.
Jannati is a close confidant of Irans Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Irans newly-elected President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is widely seen as Jannatis protégé.
The July 7 multiple bombings in Londons underground railways and a city bus left at least 54 people dead and close to 1,000 people injured.
The British government stood to gain the most from the London bombings, so that they could tell their people not to protest against their war on terrorism, the senior ayatollah said.

You got that right!!!
Don't barf at the Ayotollah. Some of our American leftist friends are saying the same thing on the internet. Trying to create the myth that it was Bush and/or Blair who did it.
Yeah, I read from some crank that it was a Mossad "false flag" operation.
Poor thing. My commute is through beautiful downtown Mission Viejo, along with the pool men and gardeners.
No work in Mission Viejo. I am an institutional equities trader. The don't exist where you are. :)
" Like Ann Coulter says: "kill their leaders and convert the rest to Christianity."
Problem is then you are doing exactly what Islam askes of it's followers within the context/times line when the Arabs went nutso, and the Qu'ran was written, then re-written about a hundred years later etc..
Christianity (the real one, not in name only) is not quite a religion. It is simply a faith based systems that one believes if the Messiah was Jesus, and he died on the cross( we have tons of secular proof of that), then was buried and rose again on the third day, and admits with his/her mouth that Jesus was the Messiah and died for their sins, and lives the life based on His teachings, then they will be saved (taken to God in some great place down the pike).
Nothing in the new testament shows any sign of agresion and obviously to anyone that reads the books, realizes we are to be gentle with onen another, and turn the other cheek. We are to be born again in the Spirit of God, not killing people and forcing them to convert say like the Catholic Church did shortly after Constantine (Roman Emperor anyone) converted?, to all pagans, and later with Pope Gregory and the rest of that bunch for some 1000 years stretch under the guise they where to conquere with the sign of the cross etc., did much blood spilling etc.. What do all those thing have to do with real Christianity? Nothing. Like we use the term RINO, I suggest Anny proposes that CINO go forth and kill and convert.
Jannati talks like Dean...
Lawyers infest every environ. I am thinking of investing in a loft in downtown LA. What do you think? The real estate bubble makes me nervous, and it will be of course a matter of price, but downtown LA is a work in progess. It might just become a decent place to play and act naughty. The beauty of it is that the trains go there, right from beautiful downtown Laguna Niguel.
This Ayatollah sounds just as dim witted as he looks. Major Owens in a turban, so to speak, or a male Shelia Jackson-Lee.
Blair's fault.
Nice try. No, not even a nice try, a real bad one.
Just like they're saying Bush put small nukes under the towers and brought them down. Sheesh

London has a terrorist attack and an Iraian cleric claims it's an inside job. America has a terrorist attack and American liberals claim it was an inside job. At least the UK has a clearly defined enemy
Just plain scum!
You mean "finish" the Crusades, once and for all!
Super Barf was my first thought, but that didn't sound good enough. I wanted something stronger than a normal Barf alert, and was inspired with the MEGATON as an upper version of Barf.
The Iranians are showing the long term effects of marrying within the immediate family.
