Iran Harboring 25 Al-Qaeda Bigs

Let the wet work begin!

Can't the CIA go in there and assassi..............oh wait a minute they got their hands full working against the White House.

And so? There they'll stay. The USA simply does not have the will required to demand anything of Iran. That's clear. We don't demand anything of Saudi Arabia, either.

The will simply is not there, at least in officialdom.

It almost sounds like an orchestrated prelude....

It almost sounds like an orchestrated prelude....

To what?

German Publication Claims Al Qaeda Leaders Operate Freely in Iran

Dan Darling, Regnum Crucis: Ciceronian Affairs

The German political magazine Cicero, which I've noted before (and apparently the BKA information contained in the article was accurate, as its publication prompted a raid on the Potsdam magazine's offices).

The original article can be accessed in its original German here, but these appear to be the passages that raised the alarm of the German authorities:

How far he [Zarqawi] left Bin Ladin's shadow behind is proven by numerous files and dossiers put together both by Western and Middle East secret services as well as information and documents compiled by German security authorities.

They do not only show the career of headhunter Al-Zarqawi, but also that his career in the name of Allah could only take place because God's killers were supplied with logistical support, money, and weapons by state organizations in a number of Middle Eastern states.

Top of the list of Al-Zarqawi's sponsors: the Islamic Republic of Iran and the hardliners from the group around the Al-Quds Brigades of the Revolutionary Guards, the Pasdaran. It is Germany's Federal Office of Criminal Investigation (BKA), of all places, that has confirmed that Iran "provided Al-Zarqawi with logistical support on the part of the state." According to BKA files, Iran used to be "an important logistical basis." READ MORE

DoctorZIn Comments: This is a MUST READ: The report has significant credibility as the German government raided the publication down after the initial report was published claiming classified state documents were used. The international media are also reporting on the Cicero report. Reuters:

Iran is permitting around 25 high-ranking al Qaeda members to roam free in the country's capital... They are living in houses belonging to Iran's Revolutionary Guards, the report said.

"This is not incarceration or house arrest," a Western intelligence agent was quoted as saying. "They can move around as they please."
