Iran busts CIA terror network
Tehran Times Political Desk

TEHRAN - The Intelligence Ministry on Saturday
released details of the detection and dismantling of a
terrorist network affiliated to the United States.

In a coordinated operation on May 7, Iranian
intelligence agents arrested the terrorist network's
members, who were identified in Fars, Khuzestan,
Gilan, West Azerbaijan, and Tehran provinces, the
Intelligence Ministry announcement said.

The group's plans were devised in the U.S., according
to the announcement, which added that they had planned
to carry out a number of acts such as bombing
scientific, educational, and religious centers,
shooting people, and making public places in various
cities insecure.

One of the terrorists was killed in the operation, but
the rest are in detention, the Intelligence Ministry
said, adding that the group's main objective was to
create fear among the people.

The United States Central Intelligence Agency
comprehensively supported the terrorist group by
arming it, training its members, and sponsoring its
inhumane activities in Iran, the Intelligence Ministry
stated.

The terrorists had maps, films, pictures, and sketches
of important and sensitive sites in various cities in
their possession when they were arrested.

They also had a large number of weapons and ammunition
and a great deal of highly explosive chemicals and
cyanide.

The blast at a religious center in Shiraz last month
was carried out by this group, and it also had plans
to carry out similar attacks on the Tehran
International Book Fair, the Russian Consulate in
Gilan Province, oil pipelines in southern Iran, and
other targets, the communique stated.

Thirteen people were killed and over 190 others
wounded in a bombing carried out on April 12 at the
Rahpuyan-e Vessal religious center, which is part of
the Seyyed-ul-Shohada Mosque complex, located in a
residential area of Shiraz.

Iran says intercepted terrorist attack on Russian consulate 14 May 2008 Iran has arrested a terrorist group that planned to blow up the Russian consulate building in the town of Rasht near the Caspian Sea, the Iranian intelligence and security minister said on Wednesday. "This terrorist network, with links to the U.S., planned an explosion at the Russian consulate in Rasht, aiming to create a rift between Iran and its neighbors," Qolam Hosein Mohseni-Ejei was quoted by Fars news agency as saying.

Iran says mosque bombers also planned Russia attack 14 May 2008 Iran's intelligence minister said on Wednesday those behind a bomb blast in a mosque that killed 14 people last month also planned to target a Russian consulate in the Islamic state, an Iranian news agency reported. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accused the United States, Israel and Britain on Tuesday of being responsible for the blast in the southern city of Shiraz that also wounded 200 people.

Iran holds U.S. responsible for terror attack on diplomats in Baghdad 17 May 2008 Iran has denounced a "terror attack" on its embassy staff in Baghdad and held the United States responsible for violating diplomatic immunity in Iraq, the official IRNA news agency reported on Saturday. Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki made the remarks, while strongly condemning the terror attack, said IRNA.

Iran blames US after diplomats are shot in Baghdad 18 May 2008 Iran angrily blamed the US on Friday after at least three of its diplomats were wounded in a Baghdad shooting, saying the US was encouraging attacks on Iranians in Iraq. The shooting, which may have been by Iraqi soldiers during an argument at a checkpoint, comes amid unprecedented strains between Iran and the Iraqi government, which has long been close to Tehran.



Pentagon Propagandist General Calls for US to Sponsor Terrorism Against Iran

http://www.crooksandliars.com/2008/05/15/pentagon-propagandist-general-calls-for-us-to-sponsor-terrorism-against-iran/

By Bill W. 16 May 2008 Last month on Fox News, Ret. Gen. Thomas McInerney, one of the Pentagon's propaganda team of military analysts exposed by David Barstow in the NYT, openly called for the US to begin committing "tit-for-tat" terrorist attacks by proxy inside Iran: "Here's what I would suggest to you. Number one, we take the National Council for Resistance to Iran off the terrorist list that the Clinton Administration put them on as well as the Mujahedin-e Khalq at the Camp Ashraf in Iraq. Then I would start a tit-for-tat strategy which I wrote up in the Wall Street Journal a year ago: For every EFP that goes off and kills Americans, two go off in Iran. No questions asked. People don't have to know how it was done. It's a covert action. They become the most unlucky country in the world..." Media Matters' exhaustive research into the NYT story shows that McInerney appeared on Fox News 144 times since Jan 2002, and according to this bio from last year's "Intelligence Summit," McInerney is on the Board of Directors for several companies with defense-related contracts that would seem to benefit from his pro-war propaganda.
