#3 I've been out for a while, but this reminds me of what I heard on Medved yesterday. He had Kenneth Timmerman on his show (he's written a new book...something like "Countdown to crisis") and Ken said that he had a source from the Iranian Army that's since come out and told his story. This source was head of security for the Iranian gov't and told Ken that Top dogs of Iran met w/ Al Qaeda in Jan/Feb of 2001 to discuss a hit on the US homeland (even made it sound like he knew an approximate date). This guy heard it, left, went to Azerbijan to the U.S. Embassy, told the CIA Station Chief about this meeting and he didn't do anything w/ the info. 8-9 months later, we saw the effect of this meeting. Source now claims that bin Laden is in Iran w/ gov't approval. So, not only are they the only gov't in the world who opens each session of their "congress" w/ shouts of "Death to America", this Army source says each day before training they burned a cross and a US flag. One footnote: Sean Penn is now in Iran reporting for the SF Gate/Chronicle (whichever) and has been quoted as saying he understands why the mullahs shout "Death to America" (and that they don't mean it literally). The MSM and Hollyweirdos in bed w/ the mad mullahs. Final take (Ken's take): It's only a matter of months now before Israel takes out Iran (if we don't move first). Overall, pretty interesting interview. I'm sure some RB'ers have heard the Iran/AQ connection story, but it was a first for me (at least a first that proved the connection).
