Tehran Deploys bin Laden’s Son to Syria
ThreatWatch ^ | Aug. 2, 2006 | Steve Schippert

Posted on 08/02/2006 9:23:41 PM PDT by FairOpinion

Any question regarding cooperation between Iran and al-Qaeda should be answered by news that Iran has ‘freed’ Usama bin Laden’s son, Sa’ad bin Laden, in order to get an al-Qaeda foothold from Syria and project it against Israel. The degree to which Usama bin Laden’s son was ‘freed’ on July 28 is directly related to the degree to which he was imprisoned. It should likely be interpreted as a deployment, not a release. According to the German Die Welt article, written by Bruno Schirra, “From the Lebanese border, he has the task of building Islamist terror cells and preparing them to fight together with Hizbollah.”

I hope he dies a slow, painful death administered by shrapnel from one of the bombs we gave the IAF.

Sorry, the Left needs a 30 minute videotape of Osama and Iran's President making out and sharing suicide bomber stories before they link Al-Qaeda with Iran. Wouldn't want to jump to any conclusions!

Bruno Schirra has fallen for Al Qaeda's simple trick, which is to convince the West that Iran is behind Al Qaeda in order to get the West to attack Iran so that Iran has no choice but to side with Al Qaeda in a shooting war.

Al Qaeda is stronger with Iran in the war than without, after all.

This plan was itemized, detailed, and outlined in the documents that we captured in Zarqawi's Iraq safe house.

The same plan is in play with Al Qaeda likewise attempting to draw Pakistan into the war by having Al qaeda provoke India such as to get Pakistan blamed.

Ditto again for getting Syria blamed for an attack on Israel, thus drawing Syria into the war.

Osama Bin Laden's strategy, after all, is to continually widen the global terror war so as to bring all Muslims into the fight.

Won't happen.

But some gullible reporters will buy it. Here's the rub, though: those gullible reporters can't explain why Iran would want to start a shooting war with the U.S. **BEFORE** Iran gets the bomb.

This news works to our (conservative/republican) favor and benefit. So good.

Iran has been working with Al Qaeda all along.

They share common objectives: the destruction of Western civilization and creation of Muslim Caliphate in the world.

Of course not. Iran is pissed that Al Qaeda is trying to draw Iran into a shooting war with the U.S.

One of the documents that we captured inside a Zarqawi safe house listed a plan to kidnap Iranians, kill them, and plant their bodies at the scene of a gruesome massacre in Iraq in order to get the U.S. pissed off at Iran so much that we went to war against them.

Iran would be blamed for the massacre was the Al Qaeda plan.

Two weeks later, Zarqawi was dead.

"Iran has been working with Al Qaeda all along."

Nope. Iran is Shi'ia and Persian.

Al Qaeda is Arabian and Sunni.

Iran hates the Taliban. Al Qaeda loves the Taliban.

Plus, Iran isn't going to do didly squat until it gets the Bomb. In contrast, Al Qaeda wants its war to widen right now.

Any question that Iran and Al Qaeda are working in tandem should be put to rest. The forces of darkness can easily align for their common goal.....the destruction of everything that's not Islamic. We must be strong, they have no affinity for life. We love life.

Strengthen our alliances with Israel, England and others. We will attack Iran from Afgahnistan, Kuait, and Iraq as well as Syria and Lebanon from the east while the IDF cleans house from their end.

This could work!

Evidence of connection between Al Qaeda and Iran.

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ned=us&q=iran+al+qaeda&btnmeta%3Dsearch%3Dsearch=Search+the+Web

The resurgence of radical Islam, which Al Qaeda is propagating started when the Ayatollah took over Iran, and Carter let them.

I know that. But Iran is a country and superior to alQaeda which is just a group or, if you like. The regime will cooperate with alQaeda, but not allow alQaeda to use them. They're too smart for that.

That's precisely what Al Qaeda wants the world to believe.

It's not believable, however, prior to Iran getting the bomb, and even then, Iranians are Shi'ia Persians who disagree with most everything about Al Qaeda's Sunni Arabs.

This is not to say that Iran is a good guy. The Mad Mullahs are their own special breed of evil, and are most certainly our enemy.

...But it harms our own efforts to blindly lump our enemies in together. They are different. They require different approaches and different timing...something that lumping them together into one giant war would complicate.

Doesn't it seem they have waited a bit too long for starting 'training'?

Or has he already been sent to Syria which triggered the HBzo to take the soldiers from Israel?

Iran cooperated with the Taliban when it suited them. Then they turned on them.
They will and have cooperated with alQaeda and other sunnis in the past for sure. They allowed the 9/11 bombers to enter Iran.
They will use anyone and everyone to reach their goals, and then dispose of them when they're through

Yes, I remember the papers found.
I believe this story about bin Laden's son was planted by Iran, not alQaeda.
