I don't buy this. Iran is Shia. Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are Sunni. They hate each other. First, they used 911 to attack Afghanistan. Then they switched it to Iraq. Now I am supposed to believe it was Iran? Iran is against the Taliban as well and helps Karzai. Osama was found in Pakistan which gets aid.

I am tired of the lies from the rulers at Washington and the judges appointed by them.

I don’t know what the facts are in this regard and you don’t either. But your reaction strikes me as knee-jerk and premature. There are certainly plenty of cases of Iran working with Sunni groups (e.g., Hamas). We’ll have to see how the information develops but you don’t sound like you have any interest in the information.

It also need not turn out (I don’t know) that Iran was hand-in-glove with Al Qaeda all the way through. They may simply have provided some specific kinds of assistance (what has long been alleged such as easing travel of Al Qaeda operatives through Iran to Afghanistan etc.). It may or may not turn out to have been any direct planning role from Iran, but to rule it out without knowledge is unwise in light of Iran’s long history of terrorism operations.
