Iran delivers fresh vitriol
2002-02-09
  • A high-ranking officer of the Iranian intelligence and security services menaced the United States and Israel with "suicide attacks" against their soldiers and disclosed that "many young Iranians were preparing for suicide operations" against them. The warning, published in the hard-line evening daily "Keyhan", was delivered by Hoseyn Shari’atmadari, the official interrogator of Iranian political prisoners, appointed as the Editor of the daily by Ayatollah Ali Khameneh'i, the Fuehrer Duce leader of the Islamic Republic. "Maybe Bush, his acolytes and America do not know that the pleasure and eagerness of martyrdom and killing American and Israeli military men are filling the hearts of great masses of Iranian people", Mr. Shari’atmadari told some pro-Khameneh'i "talabeh", or students in Islamic theology in the city of Qom.
    Hey, good idea. It worked really well for the Afghan "talabeh," too. That's how they beat the US and... Oh. They didn't.
