That's what I'm thinking too. Wouldn't be the first time this tactic was used. USS Liberty anyone?

Obviously you away when the U.S. led propaganda machine was in full swing regarding the Iran elections and bloody protests going on. Obviously you missed the countless threads within this site posting how the Iran elections were fixed. Obviously you missed the part were the opposition leader was actually on the C.I.A. payroll around the 80's when they were fighting the evil Iraqi empire.
Peace.
A Pakistani tribal militant group responsible for a series of deadly guerrilla raids inside Iran has been secretly encouraged and advised by American officials since 2005, U.S. and Pakistani intelligence sources tell ABC News. The group, called Jundullah, is made up of members of the Baluchi tribe and operates out of the Baluchistan province in Pakistan, just across the border from Iran.
Shia and Sunni tribal leaders were also killed. A Sunni resistance group, Jandullah, said they carried it out.
Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani said "US action" contributed to the attack.
Jundallah has previously been accused by Iran of terrorist activities in the province.
"Very soon we will catch the perpetrators of this terrorist action and punish them," ...
"The intention of the terrorists was definitely to disrupt security ...
"We consider the recent terrorist attack to be the result of US action. This is a sign of America's animosity against our country," ...
Earlier reports on Iranian TV quoted what it called "informed sources" as saying that Britain was directly involved.
The Iranian government has previously accused both countries of supporting the militants.

U.S. officials say the U.S. relationship with Jundullah is arranged so that the U.S. provides no funding to the group, which would require an official presidential order or "finding" as well as congressional oversight.
The Bush administration has launched a "significant escalation" of covert operations in Iran, sending U.S. commandos to spy on the country's nuclear facilities and undermine the Islamic republic's government, journalist Seymour Hersh said Sunday.
Israel has launched a covert war against Iran as an alternative to direct military strikes against Tehran's nuclear programme, US intelligence sources have revealed. It is using hitmen, sabotage, front companies and double agents to disrupt the regime's illicit weapons project, the experts say. The most dramatic element of the "decapitation" programme is the planned assassination of top figures involved in Iran's atomic operations.
A former CIA officer on Iran told The Daily Telegraph: "Disruption is designed to slow progress on the programme, done in such a way that they don't realise what's happening. You are never going to stop it. "The goal is delay, delay, delay until you can come up with some other solution or approach. We certainly don't want the current Iranian government to have those weapons. It's a good policy, short of taking them out militarily, which probably carries unacceptable risks."
Originally posted by projectvxnI don't mean to be rude, either, but I think that you are believing what you want to believe rather than looking at the facts. There is ZERO evidence so far that the US or Israel is involved in this attack. Absolutely none. The only thing they have is motive, and that motive hinges on the assumption that Israel and/or the US plans to invade/attack Iran in the near future and wants to eliminate certain members of their military beforehand.

It's a good thing I don't know anyone like you in the policy circuit. I don't want to be rude, I just don't think you're thinking, nor do I think you're paying attention to events that have taken place over the last 18 months.

The timing is a little convinient don't you think?
I don't know.. Being jewish I'm very pro Israeli , but this does seem to have the mark of a joint CIA/Mi6/Mossad op, and I don't like it one bit.
Who wants war? To see yet more death and destruction on innocent people? Yet our goverments seem to be on a collision course to conflict, with yet more families who will suffer loss because of the bloodlust of our so called
rulers.
If it is proved that this attack was funded by our goverments, then that in itself is an act of war on a soverign nation, and coupled with that, using the rational of the war on terror sparked by 9/11, would not Iran therefore be justified to carry out their own "war on terror" against those who funded/trained/equipt those who carried out this operation?
