Iran Admits To Facilitating 9/11 Terror Attacks
Washington Free Beacon ^ | June 8, 2018 6:03 pm | Adam Kredo

Iranian officials, in a first, have admitted to facilitating the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the U.S. by secretly aiding the free travel of al Qaeda operatives who eventually went on to fly commercial airliners into the Twin Towers in New York City, according to new remarks from a senior Iranian official.

Mohammad-Javad Larijani, an international affairs assistant in the Iran's judiciary, disclosed in Farsi-language remarks broadcast on Iran's state-controlled television that Iranian intelligence officials secretly helped provide the al Qaeda attackers with passage and gave them refuge in the Islamic Republic, according to an English translation published by Al Arabiya.

"Our government agreed not to stamp the passports of some of them because they were on transit flights for two hours, and they were resuming their flights without having their passports stamped. However their movements were under the complete supervision of the Iranian intelligence," Larijani was quoted as saying.

The remarks represent the first time senior Iranian officials have publicly admitted to aiding al Qaeda and playing a direct role in facilitating the 9/11 attacks.

This may be why Trump is so determined to exit the Iran deal. New York conservatives are likely to take 9/11 a lot more personally than liberals like Schumer and Gillenbrand, for whom it was just another man-caused disaster.

I’m doubting this for various reasons. I think this was 95% Saudi and Iraq and perhaps the remaining 5% afghanistan/Iran and all the other 3rd rate players in terrorism during that period.

In an unprecedented statement, Mohammad Javad Larijani, assistant to the Iranian judiciary, admitted that Iran facilitated the passage of al Qaeda operatives who carried out the September 11 attacks in the United States, confirming the report of the commission on the attacks.

Yes. Iran also trained Taliban guerrillas and manufactured and sent IEDs to Afghanistan.

No wonder ObucketOshiite sent them billions upon billions of our tax dollars to the mullahs. He was just paying them back for a job well done.

I say pay them back 10 folds using MOABs and other weapons that we have in our arsenal.

So when do we start bombing? If this is true, Iran needs to be made into the largest piece of Obsidian know to the world.

It may sound old fashioned, but if diplomatic interactions are not happening to demand clarification from Iran, they many well experience Shock and Awe. Iran since 1979 has engaged in a self-declared war with the Great Satan the United States, and Israel the little Satan. Look for further announcements of Iranian aggression to predate a US military response - forty years of one sided attacks may well be more than these A$$hat$ can imagine.

Bin Laden’s wives to the tune of a 1/2 dozen along with the family members of numerous other terrorists associated with 9/11 lived or live in Qom and two other Iranian cities.... We have known this since 2002; time to kill all the rats.

We are, in fact, helping to beef up and bring to full strength Israelis military.
https://www.debka.com/us-to-boost-its-military-presence-in-israel-top-up-israels-advanced-arsenal/

"A broad-based US plan to fortify Israel’s armed forces against a potential military showdown with Iran has just been approved by President Donald Trump, DEBKAfile reports exclusively from its military and Washington sources. It centers on the expansion of US military units based in Israel and the enhancement of Israel’s military capabilities to withstand a possible Iranian ballistic missile attack.

"The Israeli Air Force will also receive a large number of Boeing KC-46 refueling tanker craft for lengthening its range of operation and providing more flexibility. President Obama withheld the new tanker craft so as to restrict Israel’s ability to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities.

"NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said last week, after meeting President Trump in Washington, that the alliance will not support Israel if it is attacked by Iran. He made a point of avoiding the impression that he subscribed to Trump’s campaign against Iran, so as not to put up the backs of the European members opposed to that campaign.

Under the post-9/11 authorization for the use of force

A state of war now exists between the US and Iran.
