Iran says snatched diplomat freed in Iraq
Surrender Weakness Retardation = US now, We grab top ranking enemy terrorist, Iran grabs random no bodies from OUR area of operations. I got money that says the Iranians will call for more surrenders not less by our act of good faith. The Iranian embassy in Baghdad said on Tuesday that its second secretary, Jalal Sharafi, who had been kidnapped in the Iraqi capital in February had been released. Damm this pisses me OFF The announcement confirmed a report on state television in Tehran, which said Sharafi would return to Iran later Tuesday. "Yes, he was released yesterday," an official at the embassy told AFP but provided no further details. Sharafi, 40, was abducted in Karrada, a predominantly Shiite southeastern district of Baghdad, on February 4 by gunmen dressed in Iraqi army uniforms outside a branch of the Iranian state-owned Bank Melli This is not the Big Wig but the guy that got snatched after our initial first raid on the Iraqi Politico compound. If I remember correctly at first we claimed no knowledge but then later recounted that it was IA forces but we knew of the grab arrest. Still if we gave this guy it was a act of good faith & I no longer doubt we can expect to give the Big Wigs. Pitiful . His abduction came amid increasing tension between Iran and the United States, which arrested five Iranians on January 11 in the northern Iraqi city of Arbil on suspicion of aiding and abetting the Iraqi insurgency. But on Tuesday the US military expressed ignorance of Sharafi's release. "We were not holding him, so we do not know about his release," said spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Christopher Garver. Total BS Iran's foreign ministry had claimed that the United States supervises Iraq's defence ministry and was thus at least complicit in the abduction, which it blamed on a group linked to the Iraqi defence department. The US with this act just put a open ever increasing bounty on every US citizen, worker, soldiers head across the world. Posted by: Spereth Sneager5688 2007-04-03 |
