Iran: Pasdaran Commander Arrested In Iraq, Reports
2007-02-28
US forces have arrested in Iraq a commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard (Pasdaran)'s Quds Brigade, Mohsen Shirazi, reports said on Tuesday quoting US sources. Shirazi is suspected of having aided Shiite insurgents on Iran's behalf. Shirazi was allegedly arrested in Baghdad in the home of top Shiite politician Abdul Aziz al-Hakim, leader of the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI). Washington accuses Iran of arming Shiite insurgents in Iraq who are fighting against US-led foreign troops in Iraq.

#17  AP - I prefer 2-O snagging hooks, myself. Usually attach them to a 20" piece of turned hickory with barbed wire. You get such astounding sounds!

#15  Sea, maybe, just maybe, the ROEs have changed that much. Kinda like when we (and the Paki's supposedly) busted KSM. Strange knocks on the door at 2 am, and he looked like shiite in his wife-beater and 5 o'clock shadow stubble, LOL! What are we up to now, Task Force 236?

#6  So another Quds commander arrested at Hakim's home and different from the previously arrested Quds #3? I'm sure all sorts of interesting Iranians can be found by staking out any Iraqi politician.

#4  Wonder if we didn't flip ole Al Hakim to our side? I seem to recall US busting another major Quods guy at a Hakim camp getting some very sensitive papers and a temporary interrogation of Quods guys that lead US to the hit in Kurdistan that popped the top ranking Quods guy.

Either these guys are Iranian proxies and we are not able to arrest them even thou they keep ending up at our raid locals or Iran has not figured out thier boys in Iraq are getting sold off to the Big Satan.

Either way WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PLIERS, KNIFE, SYRINGE, BLACK GLVES PICTURE?
