“reports that it may have been up to 3 bombs”

starting to sound like the same guys who did the Oklahoma City Building.

A high ranking cleric named Ayatollah Anjeevi-nejad, a city official, is among the dead.

Where are you getting your info? Thanks for the updates.

Hope somebody inside Iran claims responsibility.

[G8 Diplomat]

Some believe that group, known as Jundallah, is linked to al-Qaida.

Could be. AQ kills civilians in Iraq--at mosques, in their home, anywhere, they'd do it in Iran too. In their manual, AQ has a whole list of regimes that they considered to be run by apostates, including Hafiz Assad, Qaddafi, Anwar Sadat, and Hosni Mubarak. Islam eats its own.

Iranian websites.

We’ll see who they blame it on.
Odds on favorite is that it was probably the regime itself.

pictures coming in....

Al-Qaida in Iran... Hmmm wonder but yet they were never in Iraq before we took out Saddam... Obama is a nut job.

A possible target?

“In February 2007, a car loaded with explosives blew up near a bus carrying members of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, killing 11 of them and wounding more than 30 in southeastern Iran”

The Iranians and many on the left attribute that attack to the C.I.A. working with Sunni groups in Iran.

So what did your mouse do???

I been getting a lot of double clicks of late, I’m pretty sure it isn’t me. :-)

Most of those inside the religious centre were young boys and girls affiliated to the Rahpoyan-e Vesal Association, which “holds weekly meetings every Saturday regarding misguided groups, including Wahhabis and Baha’is”, Fars added.”
btw - rahpourane vesal means those who want to die to see God

Thanks for the explanation! Hmmm... well, it's not likely the Baha'is are behind this...

[txhurl]

From what I’ve gleaned, there were three or four children accompanying their parents to this weekly meeting. The blast happened in the men’s section of the center - not the physical Mosque, but the cultural center attached to it.

None have amounted to a serious threat to the government.

Well praise allah for THAT! Innocent people mean nothing. The government is EVERYTHING!

(Coming soon to a government near you)

[happinesswithoutpeace]

idk, MEK khalq will get the blame?

“well, it’s not likely the Baha’is are behind”

No, I agree

[nuconvert]

(according to a friend)... a better translation would be “God’s path seekers”

possibly

The fact that the Iranian State press isn’t angrily denouncing and publicizing this many hours later suggests that they’re surprised by the act.

There are essentially only three seperate articles being distributed about this bombing - if Nutjob could think of a way to use this in his narrative, he would have, by now.

This signals that he doesn’t know who did it, and is paralyzed about addressing it.
