Eight fundamentalist Islamist organizations have received large sums of money in the last month from the Iranian intelligence services, as part of a project to strike U.S military and economic installations across the Middle East Asharq Al-Awsat has learned.
The plan, which also includes the carrying out of suicide operations targeting US and British interests in the region, as well as their Arab and Muslim allies, in case Iran is attacked, was drawn up by a number of experts guerilla warfare and terrorist operations, and was revealed by a senior source in the Iranian armed forces' joint chief of staff headed by the veterinary doctor Hassan Firouzabadi,
The source added that the forces of the Revolutionary Guards’ al Quds Brigades, under Brigadier General Qassim Suleimani is responsible for coordinating and providing logistical support for the groups taking part in the execution of the plan, codenamed al Qiyamah the Islamic word for "Judgment Day".
The plan includes three steps, which Asharq al Awsat has examined in earlier reports. The source gave more details about how the plan will be implemented. He said, “Most of Iran’s visitors in the last four months, including the leaders of revolutionary groups in Iraq, Palestine and Lebanon, as well as the heads of Hezbollah cells in the Persian Gulf and Europe and North America were asked, when they met with the Iranian intelligence minister Gholamhossein Mohseni Ezhei and his aides: are you ready to defend the Islamic revolution and vilayat e faqih? If you agree to take part in the great jihad, what would you need to be ready for the great fight?
Amongst the leaders who visited were the head of one of the Iraqi armed group who was very clear and honest. He said his men would transform Iraq into a hell for the Americans if Iran were attacked.
The source also said that the military training camps of the Guards were opened for the fighters of the Mehdi army in Iran to receive the necessary training. Iran had also increased its financial assistance to Moqtada al Sadr to more than 20 million dollars.
The same applied to Islamic Jihad in Palestine which has received large sums of money, large quantities of arms and military training for its cadres in Isfahan, including street fighting methods.
As for the Lebanese Hezbollah, several loads of arms have been sent to; they include rockets, explosives, and guided missiles. Hezbollah's arsenal includes more than 10 thousand rockets short-range rockets and missiles including Fajr, Nour, Arash, Hadid.
An estimated 80 members underwent private training last year on how to carry out suicide operations from the air (through the use of kite planes) and undersea operations using submarines.
While denying that Hamas had joined the list of organizations ready to help Iran in its likely war with the U.S, the source indicated that the external success of the movement, which enjoys considerable Iranian support both financial and military, was strengthened following the latest visit by its leaders to Tehran. This was translated in the Palestinian masses’ support for Iran, against Israel and the United States .
According to Iran, the latest military plan includes:
1- A missile strike directly targeting the US bases in the Persian Gulf and Iraq , as soon as nuclear installations are hit.
2- Suicide operations in a number of Arab and Muslim countries against US embassies and missions and US military bases and economic and oil installations related to US and British companies. The campaign might also target the economic and military installations of countries allied with the United States .
3- Launch attacks by the Basij and the Revolutionary Guards and Iraqi fighters loyal to Iran against US and British forces in Iraq , from border regions in central and southern Iraq .
4- Hezbollah to launch hundreds of rockets against military and economic targets in Israel .
According to the source, in case the US military attacks continue, more than 50 Shehab-3 missiles will be targeted against Israel and the al Quads Brigades will give the go-ahead for more than 50 terrorists cells in Canada, the US and Europe to attack civil and industrial targets in these countries.
What about the last stage in the plan?
Here, the Iranian source hesitated before saying with worry; this stage might represent the beginning of a world war, given that extremists will seek to maximize civilian casualties by exploding germ and chemical bombs as well as dirty nuclear bombs across western and Arab cities.
Why are we still sitting around letting them make preparations to destroy the US? I don't get it.
But what is listed is their plan is their intent to attack U.S. Embassies which are legally U.S. territory located in a foreign nation. Therefore, an attack on the sovereign territory of The United States.
Didn't stop them before.
The Carter response only legitimized their action.
"I still think a massive destruction by conventional bombing of all military and quasi military locations and some 400,000 of the core elite military personnel will do the job."
IMO, this is what United States will end up doing and I think we'll see happen soon.
Point taken. But hopefully we have learned something.
I'm not sure this is the same map that someone here sometimes posts showing terror cells in the US, but here 'tis. Don't know the accuracy of the info but it wouldn't surprise me. We all know there's something very fishy going on in Norman, Oklahoma at OU at least far back as 9/11's Atta and beheaded Nick Berg, and up to today but I don't see anything being done about it.
The link would help, huh?

They only do that to deplete the resources of our military.
Clinton shot off all of our multimillion dollar cruise missiles
at tanks not worth a hundred thousand.
Someone please call 911. This is an emergency.
I say bring it on. Its time to clean both houses of congress and get rid of both parties that are to socialistic and to far left and to far gone to be saved.
If we can't do it. I say let the Islamic Jihad do it.
With the gays, the liberals tearing this country appart. And the liberals brain washing our children with gay filth, and anti God stuff.
I only wish the Islamic terrorist will hurry up.
While legally the same thing, it is not the same thing in the practical world. Remember the Iranians attacked the US Embassy and took our people prisoner during Jimmy Carter's term
Sounds like the puppet masters' stooges--Iran et al--have plenty of plans. I'm sure they are quite serious.
They probably underestimate us by quite a margin.
And some of us underestimate the treasonous comoplicity of elements of our government and even probably some stooges within various military commands.
And I'm sure all underestimate God's part in the . . . festivities to come.
As the Chinese might say . . . 'twill be interesting.
Iran's posturing (engage caricature mode) is like a madman wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with a mushroom cloud and the words "We will vaporize you, you filthy infidel nation!", with a big lump in its trousers -- who, when asked, "Is that a nuke in your pocket, or are you happy to see us?", replies, "We have stated that we are not interested in nuclear weapons -- and we are not happy to see you."
Ambiguous, open-ended, and Clintonian-parse-speak to the nth degree.
It's a clumsy attempt at "plausible deniability", i.e., "We didn't say that we didn't have nukes, and we didn't say that we wouldn't nuke you!"
And our response is to pretend that we do not see the obvious.
An unknown with pizzazz
It's simple. Neville Chamberlain never really died. He just laid low for a while, and is now working at the State Department at a very high level.
Didn't stop them before.
Bingo.
They are convinced that they have license to do what they plese, and, that we will bluster, but at the end of the day, grit our teeth and take it.
And I'm not quite convinced that they're wrong.
Dude it was the thought that counts.......
Russia and China will sit back hoping to pick up the pieces. All they have to do is give lip service to Iran, thereby emboldening them, and wait for the West to take them out. Russia and China's only interest in Iran is oil and they will not jeapordize that access, either before the shooting starts (by abandoning Iran), or after the shooting starts (by taking a bullet for Iran). All out war with the West would be easier (if necessary) following the showdown between Iran and the West, and any resulting wearing down of our forces or arms.

Moqtada al Sadr is alive only because the U.S. military has chosen not to kill him at this time. He can be turned into road-kill at any time. His ragtag army got its ass kicked by the US and was begging the US to take its snipers off the rooftops so they could get a nights sleep.
By all means Iran, waste more money on al Sadr. Sadr and his "army" are only good at murdering and raping women and little boys.
I know these idiots can do damage but the threat is 50 cells across Canada, U.S.A., and Europe. If they don't have WMD, it's a thin threat considering that we will be reducing their military in order.
