(Iranian) Pipeline blown up
Daily Times (Pakistan) ^ | February 21st, 2007

Posted on 02/21/2007 2:41:24 AM PST by M. Espinola

Quetta: Suspected Baloch militants blew up a gas pipeline near Quetta on Tuesday, cutting supplies to a power plant and several areas, a gas company official said. Gas supplies were cut to four districts near Quetta and a 95 MW city power plant. Supplies might be restored to some areas within 24 hours, Nawaz said. No one was hurt in the early morning blast in the outskirts of Quetta. “They planted explosives under an 18-inch pipeline that blew out a 4-foot piece of the pipe,” said Sheikh Nawaz, general manager of Sui Southern Gas Company. agencies

Iranian terrorist agents have been sabotaging Iraq's oil infrastructure for far too long, now they are getting a taste of their own medicine. This is only the beginning.

It would be nice if we gave them some of those captured Iranian IED we have been hearing about.

The possible deliberate leak to the BBC about our military plan for Iran is working.

It's nice to see our good friends in Iran getting a taste of their own medicine.

The U.S. needs to get better at sending a few guys around to cause trouble.

Very good point. Up until the very second the attack orders are issued, Tehran will be jumping all different directions. Let's see how they like it - for a change.

We have gotten better & better. News coming out of Iran will really begin to show the hard fought lessons we have learned. The shoe is on the other foot now.

Blowing up an 18-inch pipeline is an experts work aside from the amount of explosives and quality it will need, that's quite expensive... Who's supplying the Baluchs with all these stuff? What's making them so bold to do this? .... good job!

Get them to start spending money on their own affairs and maybe their meddling in the affairs of Iraq will end.

I'd much rather they blew up a
foreigner staffed Basiji garrison,
or a Republican Guard HQ, or
a prominent hardliner mullah.

I thought the same thing when I read the headline.

Only the words that came to mind were "payback's a B*tch."

Naw, a humble E3 Combat Engineer with a few feet of ribbon cutting charge could do that in 2 minutes blind folded.

"Only the words that came to mind were "payback's a B*tch."

Since 1979 Iran's radical Islamist ideology has resulted in a elongated wave of state-sponsored terrorism on a worldwide basis.

52 U.S. diplomatic personnel were held hostage for four hundred forty-four days. 241 murdered U.S. Marines in Lebanon. Scores of American & other Western diplomats & citizens taken hostage many murdered. Iran founded funded, armed and trained Hizballah in Lebanon plus ideological and logistical support. Iran also funded (via it's Opec oil exports) the Pal-Arab rejectionist groups--including HAMAS, the Islamic Jihad and Ahmad Jibril's PFLP-GC all these Arab & Shi'ite terrorist groups united on two goals, extermination of the Jewish state of Israel and the destruction of America.

How Iran planned the Buenos Aires Jewish community center terrorist bombing in 1994

Iran's régime is also responsible for training and infiltrating Shi'ite terrorists into Iraq. Iran is supplying super-IEDs to Iraqi to Shi'ite terrorist gangs who continue murdering American troops and thousands of Iraqi civilians. Iranian terrorists have been blowing up Iraqi water supply systems, Iraqi 'Edison' power plants, and Iran's terrorist targeting of Iraqi crude oil pipeline system. the main source of revenue to the recovering economy.

"America cannot do anything, and if in war with infidels you kill or be killed you will be happy and will go to paradise". Ayatollah Khomeini

Enough is enough!

Iran has more then abused it's mega-exported oil and natural gas sales to promote terrorism. The main source of revenue for the Iranian Islamist dictatorship will play a part in dismantling the Tehran dictatorship.

From crisis to opportunity

Iran: Unstable, troubled oil giant Country struggles with falling oil production, soaring domestic use as dispute over nuclear program drags on.

The long reach of Iranian terror makes it the most likely source of any further attack in the US.

It would just add to the rage that this American still harbors for the 283 Marines killed in their sleep in Beirut in '83 by Iranian backed Hezbollah.

An in-law of mine lost an uncle in the bombing of the US Embassy there.

I am still waiting for payback.
