Washington
Propaganda Against Iran Aimed to Cover Up Failures in Iraq
Tehran Times 19/07/04
"Tehran on Sunday responded to a report that some al Qaeda
members involved in the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States may have
passed shortly beforehand through Iran.
The foreign ministry spokesman Hamid-Reza Asefi told a regular news
briefing that since Washington has failed to establish security and create
a sense of affinity with the Iraqi people it is resorting to propaganda to
cover up their abysmal failure in Iraq.."

"...WALLACE: One thing that has been reported out of the
commission's findings, is they say that Al Qaida's links to Iran were in
fact much stronger than were to Iraq, and that eight to 10 of the 9/11
hijackers actually had safe passage through Iran on their way west. Is
that true?
MCLAUGHLIN: Well, this is not surprising to us. We've known for some time
that — I think the count is about eight of the hijackers that were able
to pass through Iran at some point
|
in their passage along their
operational path. This is not surprising. I mean, Iran has been on the
list of state sponsors of terrorism for many years. Iran is the place
where Hezbollah, an organization that killed more Americans that Al Qaida
before 9/11, draws its inspiration and its finances.
MCLAUGHLIN: And we have ample evidence of people being able to move back
and forth across that terrain. However, I would stop there and say we have
no evidence that there is some sort of official sanction by the government
of Iran for this activity. We have no evidence that there is some sort of
official connection between Iran and 9/11..."
9/11:
The Iran Factor
The final report of the 9-11 Commission reveals troubling new evidence
that Tehran was closer to Al Qaeda than Iraq was
Newsweek 19/07/04
"...The 9-11 Commission report emphasizes there is no evidence
suggesting that Iranian officials had advance knowledge of the September
11 plot. Still, the report raises new, sharper questions about whether the
Bush administration was focused on the right enemy when it decided to
remove Saddam Hussein. The NSA memo adds to a large accumulation of
intelligence indicating that Iran has had more suspicious ties to Al Qaeda
than Iraq did..."

"The Israeli Air Force has completed
military preparations for a pre-emptive strike at Iran's Bushehr nuclear
facility and will attack if Russia supplies Iran with rods for enriching
uranium, Israeli officials said, according to a report in the London
Sunday Times. Military sources said the raid would be carried out by
long-range F-15I jets, overflying Turkey, with simultaneous operations by
commandos on the ground..."

America accuses Iran of complicity in World Trade Center attack
The Telegraph 18/07/04
"Iran gave free passage to up to 10 of the September 11 hijackers
just months before the 2001 attacks and offered to co-operate with
al-Qa'eda against the US, an American report will say this week.
The all-party report by the 9/11 Commission, set up by Congress in 2002,
will state that Iran, not Iraq, fostered relations with the al-Qa'eda
network in the years leading up to the world's most devastating terrorist
attack..."

9/11
Commission Finds Ties Between al-Qaeda and Iran - Senior
U.S. officials have told TIME that the 9/11 Commission's report will cite
evidence suggesting that the 9/11 hijackers had previously passed through
Iran
Time 16/07/04
"...A senior U.S. official told TIME that the Commission has
uncovered evidence suggesting that between eight and ten of the 14
"muscle" hijackers—that is, those involved in gaining control
of the four 9/11 aircraft and subduing the crew and passengers—passed
through Iran in the period from October 2000 to February 2001. Sources
also tell TIME that Commission investigators found that Iran had a history
of allowing al-Qaeda members to enter and exit Iran across the Afghan
border. This practice dated back to October 2000, with Iranian officials
issuing specific instructions to their border guards—in some cases not
to put stamps in the passports of al-Qaeda personnel—and otherwise not
harass them and to facilitate their travel across the frontier. The report
does not, however, offer evidence that Iran was aware of the plans for the
9/11 attacks.
The senior official also told TIME that the report will note that Iranian
officials approached the al-Qaeda leadership after the bombing of the USS
Cole and proposed a collaborative relationship in future attacks on the
U.S., but the offer was turned down by bin Laden because he did not want
to alienate his supporters in Saudi Arabia..."
Israel's
plans for Iran strikes
Jane's 16/07/04
"Amid growing concern over Iran's alleged duplicity in declaring all
its nuclear activities to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA),
Israel - the country that regards itself as most at risk from a
nuclear-capable Iran - may be poised to revive contingency plans to
destroy Iran's nuclear installations.
It is hardly surprising that Israel's national security establishment has
concluded that Israel would be at risk from a nuclear-capable Iran.
However, if a pre-emptive attack is to be launched Israel may have to go
it alone. Any joint US-Israeli precision-guided missile strike against
Iran's nuclear facilities - Bushehr, Natanz or Arak - is unlikely to prove
an attractive option for the US administration while it remains mired in
Iraq - which shares a 1,458km-long border with Iran..."
