#2   Supreme Council on Iranians Living Abroad

Nice title! Not too much self-importance there!

I can't tell where this is a death squad to hunt down Iranian expats or simply another arm of the Iranian government for exporting terrorism abroad.

#1  I seem to recall a US Embassy sponsored meeting of Iraqi exiles in London, one day in December 2002. I wonder what came out of that?
