Iran delivered half a ton of explosives in diplomatic suitcases to Paris for jihad terror attack JUN 25, 2019 11:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER

This is the regime that the Democrats are eagerly working with in order to undermine the President of the United States.

“Iran attempted attack in Paris, half a ton of explosives found – report,” by Yasser Okbi, Jerusalem Post, June 24, 2019:

Half a ton of explosives was brought to Paris in a diplomatic suitcases in order to carry out a terror attack, before being foiled by French authorities, it was reported in the British media.

The British newspaper “Independent in Arabic” quoted an intelligence source as saying that in 2018 Iran had delivered half a ton of TATP explosives in diplomatic packages to a civilian plane that was supposed to be transferred to Paris to carry out an attack in the city.

According to the report, the plane arrived from Tehran to Geneva in June 2018, following an Iranian plan to carry out a terrorist attack during a meeting of the Iranian opposition. According to a report based on intelligence sources, the attack was supposed to be carried out by an Iranian intelligence official who worked at the Iranian embassy in Austria since 2014, but French intelligence thwarted the attack after the authorities arrested a Belgian couple of Iranian origin who had the explosives in their car on their way to Paris.

A Western intelligence source said the intelligence official visited Tehran on July 20, 2018, where he received TATP explosives. On June 22, he transferred explosives in a civilian plane from Tehran to Austria on flight OS872, when the material was delivered in a diplomatic suitcase aboard the Airbus A320. The plane had 240 passengers.

The source added that the transfer of the explosives into a civilian plane constitutes a clear and blatant blow to all international treaties related to security in international aviation, for if it enters into strong pockets of air, the plane would explode in the air. The source referred to the Russian plane that exploded shortly after taking off from the Sharm el-Sheikh airport in Egypt three years ago, and all 244 passengers aboard were killed by an explosive charge weighing half a kilogram of TNT

Go Roman on them and supply the dissenters with weapons.

Destroy them from the air.

I’ve had it with them.

Ah, seems like only yesterday that attacks in the US and Israel had the international community scolding us about the “root causes” and how we brought it all upon ourselves by the oppression and the evil policies of the US and Israel. Then the attacks started in Belgium, Germany, France, and Canada, and suddenly the phrase “root causes” went right down the memory hole! Woosh!

Iran deal “partner in peace.”

That’s what it would cost France to have trade with Iran while we provide defense for Europe. Just some downtown terror.

Also, isn’t TATP that unstable, very potent high explosive also known as the “Mother of Satan?”

Smuggled in in diplomatic pouches?

I wonder if it was fully functional, or if precursors were smuggled in to be finished and activated in terrorist bedroom/basement labs.

Bio weapon material could be easily transported in diplomatic pouches.

We (Western nations) are idiots to allow Iran to even have a thought of doing this.

"Democrats loved my deal. Because Iran was fully complying!"



There are still Democrats at Yahoo that defend the Iran "deal" - Because you know, Iran's mullahs can fully be trusted. It's not like they're terrorists or anything.

The article should read ‘diplomatic pouch’ which can encompass pretty much anything. South American diplokleptos send automobiles out of the US to their various nations by ‘pouch’. Back in the 50’s a Venezuelan warship, a destroyer I think, was made seriously top heavy by the ‘pouch’ deck cargo of large appliances and various heavy consumer and industrial goods. The ship encountered some rough weather and very nearly rolled over in a moderately heavy seaway.

While I know the Persians have plenty of moolah to do things on its own would anyone be surprised if some of this was paid for by that Obama Money?
