Several top commanders in Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards have been killed in a suicide bombing in the volatile south-east of the country.
Iranian interior ministry said 29 people died in the attack, in the Pishin region of Sistan-Baluchistan, and at least 28 were injured.
Shia and Sunni tribal leaders were also killed. A Sunni resistance group, Jandullah, said they carried it out.

Waiting for dinnerjacket to accuse the Jooows.
Sounds like when the Taliban took out the leaders of the Northern Alliance right before 9/11.
Sometimes things start, and you don’t even realize it.
But first, a little comedy relief...
Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani said "US action" contributed to the attack...
"We consider the recent terrorist attack to be the result of US action. This is a sign of America's animosity against our country," Mr Larijani said, quoted by AFP.
"Mr Obama has said he will extend his hand towards Iran, but with this terrorist action he has burned his hand," he said, referring to US President Barack Obama.
Time for Iran to pick up a mop, I guess.
I love the way they mock Obama and his stupid Appeasement tactics.
We did what we came to do there...might be time to tell them this is their show now.
While I’m glad we handed Saddam...it’s could be time to move on. Starting to feel that way about Afganistan too. I want Obama to show us a clear plan...George Will has a point.
I love how they always refer to "Revolutionary Guards" as "elite". Funny how Iraq's Revolutionary Guard folded like a deck chair when he met up with plain old GI Joe.
I am guessing they used Israeli supplied weapons. Obama is too much of a whimp to help out.
How long before the MSM give credit to Bam?
Is this Hillary speaking or Obama?
To Paraphrase Micheal Ledeen: ‘ More please! faster!”.
Even my local 'Redneck' friends mentioned that stocking up on some gasoline (now) would be a good idea...It's in the air, I guess.
A good start.
“We consider the recent terrorist attack to be the result of US action. This is a sign of America’s animosity against our country,” Mr Larijani said, quoted by AFP.”
Uh, oh, he must not have gotten the memo from Obambi telling him that the whole world lovey, lovey, loves us!
Jandullah shouts “Allah Akbar!” KABOOM!!!
and then Iran Revolutionary Guard shouts “Allah Akbar!” KABOOM!!!
Welcome to the Twilight Zone of Sunni Extremists vs Shiite Extremists
