Turkish intelligence sees Al Qaida in Iran behind synagogues attack
Turkey believes Al Qaida agents in Iran were involved in the suicide strikes Saturday against two synagogues in Istanbul. The sources said the extent of planning and logistics appear to be the work of Al Qaida operatives in Iran. The intelligence sources said the attacks could have been carried out by Al Qaida or the Iranian-backed Hizbullah group. The sources Al Qaida operations chief Seif Al Adel was believed to have organized the attack from somewhere in Iran. It canât be a healthy thing to be a group dependent on the goodwill of Muslim nations, but to offend and bring your group to the attention of Turks by what really constitutes an act of war. I wonder if there are any behind the scene discussions going on now between Turkey and Iran? Posted by: cingold 2003-11-19 |
