Iran Is Found To Be a Lair of Al Qaeda

Submitted by Mike Hollins, Jul 18, 2007 05:03

I've heard these reports before, and I believe them. Since taking power in 1979, the Tehran regime has murdered at least 700 Americans--both civilians and troops. And it continues these acts of war. Al Qods has set up a vast covert network in Iraq, which the U.S. has been busy destroying. Through this network, Iran has been supplying money, weapons, and training to both Shiite and Sunni Iraqis who attack U.S. forces. But the Nazi-minded war criminals in Tehran were astonished this spring, when the U.S. started seizing and interrogating senior Al Qods officers. The regime is scared to provoke a direct showdown with the U.S. But it may have already. I suspect the President will use military force soon, and the first stage of the operations plan may be a blockade of empty tankers bound for Iranian ports. I also suspect U.S. subs have already mined Iranian naval bases, with the mines to be remotely activated when the blockade begins. Any boats or ships not bottled up in port could not return there to refuel or rearm. And retaliation would only give the three carrier groups soon to be off Iran's coast an excuse to destroy its navy, offensive missile sites, and air defense system.
