    Quite the opposite. Rather than hiding from apocolyptic stories of potential doom you seem to be all too willing to believe created ones. Sort of like looking for something to worry or annoy you

    Only if Ahmadinejad sanctioned it, who am I to question the great man.

    But you cannot prove that he sanctioned it.

    I always have you and eddie to ground me in matters in which you seem to be biased Jacky. The fact that you took offense - after assuming that you were one of the "usual suspects" - would have Freud rubbing his hands with glee.

    You also seem to think that I fastidiously read all comments on every thread, I discard the ones that are bunkum and after reading your post on the 2nd page I know why I ignored it, because it is bunkum.

    Yes they certainly helped track down OBL did'nt they?

    So if it was just students who did it off their own backs you would not condone it?

    <laugh> Bin Laden died 10 years ago, insignificant soldiers were on a wild goose chase, Bin Laden served a purpose, just like his "death" served a purpose.

    You are not too informed in the goings on of the world are you Dev?

    Dont have a clue what you are referring to with the ususal suspects comment. What statement exactly was bunkum?

    Also what the hell could they have done tracking OBL? Al Qaeda is no friend of Irans

    I also have grave reservations about the information the public have been fed about the existence and search for OBL and the fate the SEALS team encountered shortly after his apparent assassiation. Did he not die of a kidney/lung infection years ago

    Dont worry lads William Hague said so, so it must be true

    After all look at the massive amounts of WMD's that were discovered the last time the government told us

    As for the 'proof' argument , I LMFAO at that coming from Russ.

    What he means is you prove it, what I say is given

    Two opposition student organisations in Iran have condemned the storming of the British embassy, claiming those behind it were associated with the Islamic regime.

    Tahkim Vahdat and Advar Tahkim, groups with some influence among Iranian students, have issued separate statements criticising the attack that triggered one of the worst crises in bilateral ties between Tehran and London since the 1979 Islamic revolution.


    "The office of Tahkim Vahdat condemns the attack at the British embassy – the attackers were not true representative of Iranian students, they were affiliated with the authorities in power," the statement said, according to Kalame.com, a website close to the opposition leader, Mir Hossein Mousavi.
    "The [local] media portrayed the attackers as a group of students but people associated with pressure groups and some forces from the revolutionary guards were seen among them who have no affiliation to students," it added.


    Tahkim Vahdat was originally created in the aftermath of the Islamic revolution as a conservative Islamist student organisation aimed at combating secular movements. At the time, many of its members were involved in the seizure of the US embassy and the hostage crisis.
    But after the election in 1997 of former reformist president Mohammad Khatami, it experienced a major shake-up and supported pro-democracy movements, especially in the events after the disputed presidential elections in 2009, when many of its members were arrested.
    "Iran's national interests were damaged 32 years ago after the seizure of the US embassy with similar claims, an incident that doubled the challenges Iran was facing at the time," the organisation said. "Despite the claims, the leader of student movements [in Iran] and dozens of other students are currently kept in jail for criticism."


    Advar Tahkim, a similar organisation but consisting of graduates and academics rather than students, said the attackers were from the basij militia, a paramilitary force under control of the revolutionary guards that has played a significant role in crushing protests organised by various movements, including student, women and political activists.


    Western diplomats based in Tehran visited the British embassy and its separate diplomatic residential compound in Qolhak in the north of the capital on Thursday, where two days earlier protesters had damaged properties, ransacked offices and scattered documents.


    The Polish ambassador in Tehran, whose country holds the presidency of the council of the European Union, is said to have held emergency meetings with his other counterparts. The semi-official Fars news agency said diplomats from Italy, Australia, Brazil, Germany, Spain and Turkey were among those who visited the two places on Thursday in solidarity with their British diplomats.


    After inspecting the two compounds, diplomats told Reuters that what they witnessed appeared to have been the result of a "well organised" attack rather than a "spontaneous eruption of anger".


    "It was devastating to see," one EU diplomat told the agency. "I saw two rooms where you couldn't see what they were. There was just ashes." He added: "You could tell the action was co-ordinated."


    State agencies in Iran described the protest as a spontaneous reaction of "students" to Britain's anti-Iran policies, especially the UK's recent severing of all ties with Iranian financial sectors, including the Central Bank of Iran, which is crucial to the survival of the country's oil industry.
    In his reaction to the attack, the foreign secretary, William Hague, who on Wednesday ordered the expulsion of Iranian diplomats from the UK, told the parliament that the attackers were "student Basij militia".


    In the wake of the recent events, president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has so far remained silent, although his foreign ministry regretted the attack and promised an investigation.
