The Soviets actively supported Iraq against Khomeni in the decade-long Iran-Iraq War.
The two bombers in Boston can now take credit for stiring the “hornets nest” for all the terroist groups around.
I predict that there will hundreds of similar incidents happeing across the U.S. and in Canada in the not too distant future. Mexico on the other hand? Well they have their issues, like sneaking into the U.S.
Yes they did because Iraq was a long term client state of the Soviets.
However, Iran still didn’t support the Mujahideen or Islamist separatist movements in the USSR because Khomeini valued their strategic value against the US more than their animosity towards atheism.
