IRANIAN "SURROGATES" TO CLANDESTINELY STRIKE EUROPE

THE AGE; (VIA NO PASARAN):

Iran is attempting to draw up plans to strike targets in Europe and has reconnoitered European nuclear power stations, a security analyst told a meeting at Britain's parliament.

Claude Moniquet, president of the European Strategic Intelligence and Security Centre, a private think-tank in Brussels, said his organisation also had evidence Tehran has increased the number of its intelligence agents across Europe.

"We have serious signals that something is under preparation in Europe," Moniquet said. "Iranian intelligence is working extremely hard to prepare its people and to prepare actions."

The centre, which he said deals directly with European intelligence agencies, believes Iranian operatives have carried out "reconnaissance of targets in European cities, including nuclear power stations," Moniquet said. He mentioned no other specific targets.

... Conservative parliamentarian Patrick Mercer told the meeting that Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett, in a debate in December, had acknowledged worries about Tehran backing terrorist activity inside Britain.

There were "concerns about the scale and nature of terrorism in this country, and about whether some of that is inspired or funded in any way by forces in and around Iran," Beckett told MPs.

Parliament's intelligence and security committee, a panel of MPs which reviews the work of Britain's MI5 and MI6 domestic and foreign spy agencies, also warned last year of an "increased threat to UK interests from Iranian state-sponsored terrorism".

I'D GUESS THESE IMPENDING STRIKES - WHICH WILL MOST CERTAINLY BE UNDERTAKEN IN A WAY TO ENSURE IRAN DENIABILITY - WOULD BE "REPRISALS" FOR WHATEVER THE ACTION THE WEST TAKES WHICH PISSES OFF THE IRANIAN ISLAMO-TOTALITARIANS: COULD BE SANCTIONS AGAINST THEM OR SYRIA, OR AN UNBRIDLED ATTEMPT BY ISRAEL TO WIPE OUT HIZBALLAH.

IF WE DO NOT TOPPLE THESE ISLAMO-FASCISTS, IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THEY STRIKE EUROPE, OR BEGIN A WIDE-SCALE INITFADA THERE.

MEANING... WE SHOULD STEP UP OUR AID TO THE REBELS AND RESISTERS THERE.
