Iran - Spy Brits Bomb

IRAN - SPY BRITS BOMB
Saturday, October 22, 2005 - FreeMarketNews.com

Iran is now claiming to have "proof" that British agents had a role in attacks that killed six and injured more than 100 others in Ahvaz last week. The Iranian accusation comes on the heels of a British apology to Iraq over the capture and violent rescue of two British soldiers dressed in native garb who had been driving around Basra in a car filled with weapons.

Initial reports indicated that the car's contents included bomb-making equipment and such reports have been regularly amplified in Iran these last few weeks. Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki told state television, "Information obtained by the concerned organs show that Britain is the main accused in the recent events." This shows, he alleged, that "Britain is seeking to create insecurity in our country by interfering in our internal affairs."

The reports that it was Britain, and even the United States planting some of the roadside bombs, were deemed credible by some of the alternative Internet press because of England's past history regarding this sort of practice. During the 20th century and England's bitter fight over Ireland, it was fairly well documented that the English engaged in a variety of destabilizing strategies up to and very possibly including the planting of bombs in such a way as to cast blame on their Irish opponents.

The British, having recently apologized, were not in any mood to do so again. "We reiterate our total rejection of these accusations as well as our condemnation of these terrorist attacks," a senior British diplomat is reported as saying. "We have made it clear to the Iranian authorities that the British government and British forces in Iraq stand ready to assist in preventing attacks of this kind." - ST
