The Iranian regime’s puppets in Iraq committed an awful crime by setting a road side bomb near a bus stop.
I agree with much regret that placing bombs on the side of the roads in Iraq is a daily business in that country, no thanks to the ruling mullahs in Iran.
Being the mullahs’ number one enemy, Mojahedin are used to terrorist attacks by the Iranian regimes agents in the past 20 years of their stay in Iraq. In 1999 a passenger bus traveling on the same route was commuting to Ashraf city when it was hit by a remote controlled car bomb that killed six and wounded 21, near a hospital north of Baghdad. The next day Ashraf city was attacked by Scud missiles.
This terrorist act is an indication of escalation of the Iranian regime’s meddling in Iraqi affairs at the time when the international community is demanding peace and calm in that tormented nation.
Therefore, I strongly urge the new Iraqi government to give the Mojahedin in Ashraf political refugee status. It would not only bring the Iranian regime meddling in Iraq to an end, but also it would pave the way for a viable front against the growth of fundamentalism and terrorism in Iraq.
