SULAIMANIYAH, Iraq — An Iranian officer accused of smuggling powerful roadside bombs into Iraq for the elite Quds force was arrested Thursday, the U.S. military said.

The suspect — a member of the Quds Force, an elite unit of Iran's Revolutionary Guards — was detained in the Kurdish city of Sulaimaniyah, the military said.

He was allegedly involved in transporting roadside bombs, including armor-piercing explosively formed penetrators, or EFPs, into Iraq, according to a statement. It said intelligence reports also indicated he was involved in the infiltration and training of foreign fighters in Iraq.

Iran is a terrorist nation and their leaders are murderers.

It would be nice if this mook were also “allegedly” tortured to give up his cohorts and those who back him and where their bomb factory is...then “allegedly” he commits suicide with two bullets to the head and found in a Tehran park somewhere.

"But of course, we know nothing about this incident of which you speak. This is clearly a Zionist plot. As you know, we Muslims are the most honest, forthright, and peace-loving people!"

In this capture of an Iranian terrorist by American Soldiers, why is it that the Iranian is referred to as “elite”? In as much as they captured him, wouldn’t the Americans be even more “elite”?

We are, but the US side doesn't seem to know it.

“Why aren’t we at war with Iran?”

running out of bullets and soldiers.

Actually the scenario begs the same situation when it was decided to drop the two nukes in WWII. To save U.S. lives and money if we had to invade Japan.

Iran pledged to deliver a “final reponse” to the U.S and other supporters of Israel during a religious ceremony next month, the Islamic Republic News Agency reported Thursday.

Iranian government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham said the message would be sent on Qods Day, held each year on the last Friday of Ramadan, and would arrive during a visit to the Palestinian territories by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

“The US loses all opportunities to cooperate with regional and other world states by trying to support a regime (the Zionist regime) which is now at its weakest political and social position,” Elham said according to IRNA.

Qods Day falls on October 12 this year.

Kill him. Stick his head on a pike on the border. They might understand that.

“Kill him. Stick his head on a pike on the border.”

Of course, there’s always that.

You mean the mexican-american border?

Take him to a secret CIA prison in Eastern Europe and beat the ever living sh*t out of the scumbag until he tells us everything he knows about Iran’s disruptive involvement in Iraq.
