Iran 'behind Green Zone

news.bbc.co.uk

The most senior US general in Iraq has said he has evidence that Iran was behind Sunday's bombardment of Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone.

Gen David Petraeus told the BBC he thought Tehran had trained, equipped and funded insurgents who fired the barrage of mortars and rockets.

Sorry if this is a duplicate post.

Could this be a false-flag precursor? or just part of the proxy-war that is already taking place?

Imo its a part of the ongoing proxy war, anyone crazy enough to believe in Gen. David Petraeus homebrewed evidence should get their head examined right away.

The ramp up to the attack on Iran continues on schedule. Gen. Betray-us is as much a propaganda mouthpiece as he is a field commander. Can there be any doubt that the USA will attack Iran before Bush hit’s the road? The only question in my mind is how much Russia-China will put up with.

I've often stated my opposition to the occupation of Iraq, but it does not necessarily follow that Patreus is homebrewing evidence.

Iran's Parchin Missile Industries have been producing a number of unique weapons systems which are turning up in Iraq in large numbers.

weapons like the tandem HEAT RPG-7 rocket grenade, the Sageh anti personnel fragmenting warhead RPG-7 and the Nafez 500mm penetration anti tank RPG-7.

It is possible to identify the manufacturer of various warheads by forensic evaluation.

You say people need their heads examined for believing Patreus...

You would have to have your head in the sand not to realise that Iran is behind the latest uprising by the Maadhi Army.

Or just think about the question 'who is to gain?' in this one. The only country that is to gain with an attack on the green zone that is easily tracked to weapons made by Iran is the US. I wouldn't put it beyond them that they got their hands on a batch of Iranian weapons and created the opportunity to shoot them inside the greenzone. The only thing Iran has to do is keep to their own business and they are doing that. Iran isn't stupid and they know that the position they are in is a fragile one. They already do more damage to the US by stopping to trade in Dollars, just like Iraq was planning before they got bombed into oblivion.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. We got fooled once. Let us not get spoonfed stories again by an entity that fed us crap before, first smell if it is not the final stage of a bowelmovement.
