Archives

Because it had become clear that the Moderates in Iran have no power and the radicals are still in charge. Not only did Iran send a shipload of weapons to the Palestinians, but it has resumed support for the Soldiers of Mohammad, an extremist group based in Afghanistan with about 1,300 armed troops.--Stephen V Cole
