Two Iranians Arrested in Iraq
2004-07-05
Iraqi officials arrested two Iranians trying to detonate a car bomb Monday in a residential neighborhood in eastern Baghdad, authorities said. Iraqi officials have blamed foreign fighters and religious extremists for a wave of vehicle bombings in recent months. The arrests Monday were the first time they actually captured any foreign fighters, according to Col. Adnan Abdul-Rahman, an interior ministry spokesman. Abdul-Rahman said the men had been captured in the Talbiyah neighborhood as they tried to set off a car bomb. He did not elaborate on what their target was.

Time for the firing squad, and make it public.

#9   I expect 12 well aimed 2000 lbs bombs hitting the correct manifolds would pretty much wrap up the oil front in Iran.

I like the way you think, Shipman. Begin the process of starving out Iran right away. They need to be choked into unconsciousness pronto!

#6  Perhaps they could borrow the Time video studio so they can do a slick production. Think Time's Baghdad Bureau would cooperate with the non-jihadis?

#5  The Iraqi government should rapidly place the two captured Iranian terrorist agents on Iraqi TV. A little talk show is in order, with the infiltrated Iranians spilling the beans about just how deeply Tehran's mullahs really are in fostering Iraqi domestic economic terror.

The captured Iranian terrorists should be made into a major media event exposing Iran's & Syrian promotion of deliberate sabotage of Iraq's only exported commodity, crude oil.


(To-Tell-the-Truth, injections shall be administered to Iran's terrorists agents prior to the show going on air.)

#1  More proof of whom is really behind the wave of terrorism directed at disrupting the general Iraqi economy including crude oil exports.

Iran's OPEC oil flows to customers, earning billions for continued jihad, while Iraq's pipelines are blown up, by Iranian agents.
