Interesting that this would point to Iran. I wonder if that has anything to say about 9/11 or anthrax.

Yes it is interesting that it would point to Iran. There are a number of other details around major terrorist events (i.e. Lokerbie) which point to a possible Iran connection. But this is only circumstantial. Also, some Israeli researchers believe that Iran is the major backer of Bin Laden - and that would be where he disappeared to.

I always want it not to be Iran, just because I so appreciate that land and its culture. However, people are one thing, and governments quite another.

In a funny way, everything that has happened since Sept 11 hs benefitted Iran. The Taliban was knocked over, and they didn't have to do it themselves (which they had planned to, then thought it was too difficult.) Also, now the US is poised more strongly than ever against Iraq, and Iran waits for the day when that govt falls. They will be straight into southern Iraq - part of the Shia heartland - as well as site of major oil reserves.

But surely, if Iran was behind any of these major events, the intelligence services would know it ... wouldn't they?

Guess where I am posting from? I am in Amman, Jordan, in an internet cafe. I am travelling, will go home soon.
