It says that the al-Sharq story is disinformation.

I anticipate that the article is close to the truth. There is infighting within the Revolutionary Guards and some of them are working according to "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" but the others despise the Talibans and al Qaeda. Expect more of them in the former category to be fired and put in jail.

This will as well be used by Khatami to get more power to the presidency.

However, the link between Mullah Krekar and Zawahiri is now more substantiated. see here

I think the bottom line is that Iran will tolerate Al-Qaeda as long as they are doing their terror thing against western nations, but attacking other islamic nations is just too close to home. The Shiites and the Wahabbis hate each other dearly.
