And still the US will not put Iran on the list of terrorist countries that will be the target of military action similar to Afghanistan.

Too bad...

Let me see - supporting terrorism is a way to deter Israel from reacting to the threat of nuclear annihilation? Am I missing something, or is this just plain nuts?

"Iran wants a base and stronghold in the PA to threaten Israel," the official said. "They feel the way to counter an Israeli threat to their nuclear program is through the use of terrorism. They feel this will deter any attack on Iran."

It will? Look around... supporting terrorism is a great way to get yourself attacked.

I keep seeing hints that Iran might have been involved in the 9/11 attacks and other acts of aggression. Iran was mentioned in the Moussaoui indictment (although, perhaps surprisingly, Iraq was not). Rafsanjani recently made a major speech suggesting an Islamic pre-emptive nuclear strike against Israel. The wording in the anthrax letters is very similar to a common Iranian anti-Western chant (see this thread, together with the discussion there for specifics).

Iran Deplores US Stance Against Tehran Conference on Palestine (4/25/01)
Iran on Wednesday deplored the stance of the United States that called some participants in the ongoing Tehran international conference on Palestine "terrorist," the official IRNA news agency reported.

"Those fighting for liberation of their homeland could not be called terrorist. Not only Iran but also all other Muslim nations condemn the U.S. backing for Israeli state terrorism," Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi was quoted as saying by the agency.

The two-day conference, which opened on Tuesday, aims to " attract financial and spiritual support in defense of the Palestinians," Asefi said.

It has brought together some of Israel's worst enemies as well as delegates from more than 30 Muslim nations that had until now eschewed calls for confrontation with Israel.

U.S. State Department Spokesman Philip Reeker on Tuesday warned the nations attending the Tehran conference that they would be designated "terrorist" in the U.S. annual report on international " terrorism" due to be released next week.

Asefi noted that the Middle East crisis could not be resolved by one-sided support of Israel whose terrorist operations are clear to all.

"The Islamic republic of Iran does not need the US approval for its humanitarian and spiritual aid for the oppressed Palestinians and the Lebanese resistance movement," he said.

"Iran and other Muslim nations feel obliged to support the Palestinian combatants," he stressed, calling for a democratic solution to the conflict which enforces the very basic rights of the Palestinians.

According to organizers, the conference is expected to provide support for the Palestinian intifada, or uprising, against Israeli occupation, and make decision on practical steps to help the Palestinians succeed in restoring the rights of Palestinians.

The latest string of clashes between Israeli forces and the Palestinian protestors have so far killed 470 people, most of them Palestinians, since last September.

This one-meter resolution, satellite image of the Bushehr Reactor, Iran was collected by Space Imaging's IKONOS satellite at approximately 10:30 a.m. on May 19, 2001. The image shows the Iranian Nuclear facility located approximately 17 kilometers south of the city of Bushehr. The reactor complex occupies a 2.5 Square Kilometer site area, which includes assembly halls, a concrete channel for cooling water that runs from the reactors to the Gulf, and a the harbor which supports loading and unloading of foreign materials needed for construction and reactor operation. There are two reactor buildings at Bushehr, one is in an advanced stage of completion while the other has remained dormant for some time.
