#9 Al Qaeda is a Sunni affiliated terrorist group. Iran is Shia (and non-Arab); the two sects (surprise) don't mix I didn't know you worked for the MSM... |

#8 For years it seemed our policy was to arrange for arms to be supplied to whichever side - Shia or Sunni - was getting beaten in their neverending battle with each other. Cruel, but effective. |

#7 Al Qaeda is a Sunni affiliated terrorist group. Iran is Shia... Yeah but like different tribes of Orcs, they both hate us more than they hate each other and would happily drop their disagreement and cooperate with each other against us. |

This is enemy of my enemy stuff, Mike, just like Iran's support of the extremely Sunni Hamas. Lots of evidence scattered throughout Rantburg's archives of Iran sheltering senior Al Qaeda members following the capture of Tora Bora, including Osama bin Laden's favourite son and his family. |

#5 Sounds like someone is preparing the rational to strike. Nope. Somebody is preparing an excuse for the pressure that the current admin. is putting on Israel not to attack Iran. |

#3 Amazing given who screamed about the 'lack of evidence' regarding Sadaam's links to Al Queda (or terrorism in general). |

#1 How long have we been fearing this link? 10 minutes? or 10 years if we look at the intell? If this is a revelation to the current administration, we're screwed. |
