Iran "biggest exporter" of terror
Economic Times ^ | 2/15/2012 | Economic Times

Accusing Iran of being the world's "biggest exporter" of terror, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today asked the global community to draw a "red line" against Tehran's alleged support to acts of terrorism following a series of blasts in India and Thailand.

"Iran is the biggest exporter of terror in the world. Iran's terror operations are now exposed for all to see," Netanyahu said during a Knesset (Israeli parliament) plenum, a day after a botched terror attack in Thailand, which Israel believe was meant to target its ambassador in Bangkok.

"Iran is undermining the world's stability and harms innocent diplomats. World countries must condemn Iran's terror acts and draw a red line. This aggression, if not stopped, will eventually spread," the Israeli Premier warned.

Four Thai nationals were wounded in Bangkok in a series of blasts yesterday when a cache of explosives ignited at a house, apparently by mistake.

One explosion blew off the leg of an Iranian who had fled, carrying what looked like grenades.

Israel also blamed Iran and Hezbollah, Lebanese Shi'ite faction supported by Tehran, for the bombing of an Israeli diplomatic car in New Delhi that wounded four people, including a diplomat's wife, on Monday.

A similar bomb targeting Israeli diplomats in Georgia was found under a car but neutralised on time.

Tensions between Tel Aviv and Tehran have risen sharply after three bomb incidents in world capitals.

An Israeli woman diplomat was injured in yesterday's attack in New Delhi but a similar attack in Tbilisi was averted when the explosive device was discovered.

To state the perfectly obvious to anyone even looking. And yet libs would rather support Iran over Israel, pretending that Iran didn’t send terrorists into Iraq to kill our own troops. They say Iran has as much right to a nuclear bomb as Israel. Are they crazy or suicidal or what?

I think that they are ill informed and do not grasp international affairs. They hope that international law will take care of the problem.

Useful idiots. Remember those human shields who flew to Iraq to help out Saddam Hussein? They thought they could protect schools and hospitals and the like. I heard they were asked to go to military targets instead. Some of them even saw the attrocities comitted by Uday and Qusay. So they came running back to the safety of the USA.

These are also the same people who supported the Soviet Union during the Cold War and supported nuclear disarmament or “freeze”. If you quiz them long enough, then they begin to deny the Holocaust ever existed.

There are “conservative” web sites promote that stuff.I just came from one that promoted this on a regular basis. This is not one of them. FR has always been pro-Israel.

By your 7th post I suspected what you mean. I know it exists but not so prevalently as on the Left, from what I notice. Socialists in particular have no love for Jews, and anti-Zionism, make no mistake, is just code for hatred of Jew. I can almost understand it on the part of the Left, having studied but never sympathized with their belief systems, but not the Right.
