Iran establishes unit to recruit suicide bombers
Iran has set up a new unit to recruit suicide bombers from around the world, the London-based Arabic newspaper A-Shark al-Awsat reported Friday. According to the report, the secretary-general of the new unit began by drawing up a list of names of people who support suicide attacks in Iraq, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories.Donât look for his family and friends on the list. You wonât find any. The newspaper reported that the bureau, called "The martyrs of the resurrection of the Islamic world," replaces a unit of the Iranian Republican Guard, which was known as the "department for the revolutionary freedom movements." Freedom?! Freedom ainât got nuttinâ to do with it! Those behind the establishment of the unit are extremist Islamists members of the Iranian regime, the report claims, who are opposed to the moderate steps taken by President Mohammed Khatami. I like the fact that theyâre looking for people to kill themselves. But this one-at-a-time thing seems inefficient. Isnât there a more effective way we can help them out?
