Iran blames west for deadly suicide bombing

Iran's Revolutionary Guards today vowed to take revenge after blaming Britain and the US for a suicide bombing that killed six of its commanders and 37 others in one of the country's most unstable provinces.

The attack, which killed the deputy commander of the guard's ground forces, General Noor Ali Shooshtari, and Rajab Ali Mohammadzadeh, the provincial commander for Sistan-Baluchistan, inflicted Iran's worst military casualties in years and raised questions of intelligence and security failures in a region long blighted by a violent Sunni insurgency.

I doubt America had anything to do with it but I HOPE we did.

They’ll probably declare war on us now that we have a coward-in-chief as president.

Iran blames us for the weather. Hey! That means they have something in common with Al Gore!

I find this oddly funny. Think of all the suicide bombings the Iranians have supported over the years...and I’m wondering what the Iranians were thinking right after the BOOM. Does this qualify as irony?

.....vowed to take revenge after blaming Britain and the US....

....Oh, if it were only true..

Does anybody here think that Zer0's merry band of gay blades has the balls to engage in something like this?

I don't.....

..It would not surprise me that the next action we see by the U.S. regarding Iran will be Zer0 himself on live TV apologizing....

... by kissing mockmood's bare ass.

FYI: Khaled Sheik Mohhamed (a.k.a Joe Million-Hairs) is a Baluchi also. I think Ramsey Bin Al-Shieb is too.

Too bad we couldn’t have taken a few of the senior mullahs out at the same time.

I hope not. The white flag would be raised within minutes.

Sadly, I doubt very much the current US Administration is able or willing to dispense such rough justice to the Iranian Guards who have been supplying weapons and, especially, the makings of IEDs, to the Islamic extremist savages who have been killing our best young people in Iraq and Afghanistan.
