IAF Not Involved
As noted previously here on Wizbang, Iran is a far less homogeneous state
than most in the West would believe. So much so that what appear to be
local resistance movements have been causing Republican Guards facilities to
go “Boom” rather more than the Mad Mullahs approve of.
More’s the pity.
Iran and Syria are Getting Blown Up. And Sometimes Shot.
By Michael Ledeen | PJ Media
It’s all the rage. Literally. Two explosions at Iranian military/
nuclear weapons sites. Four explosions in Syria, including three suicide
bombers in Damascus on Saturday, two of which were aimed at Syrian security
forces buildings, all in the past few days. Today’s explosion was in
Aleppo, and also “near a government security building.”
The Iranian blasts are seemingly more dramatic, and probably part of the
ongoing campaign being waged against the installations of the Revolutionary
Guards Corps, especially, but not solely, those connected to the nuclear
weapons project. One of the blasts took place at Zarin Dasht, once the site
of a Russian mill, now an important component of the military/industrial
complex of the country, where missile fuel and warheads for missiles are
manufactured. As is often the case, much of the complex is underground,
which is where the explosion took place. My sources tell me that seven
people are missing and several are wounded and are being treated. So far as
I know there are no reports in the Iranian media.
The more dramatic event was the explosion at Natanz, generally credited
as the major uranium enrichment center in the country. The most important
facilities are eight meters underground, and are among those potential
military targets said to be very hard to destroy. The explosion, according
to my Iranian sources, took place in the next-to-bottom level of the
underground structure, leading to a shutdown of the entire complex.
Bad luck, no doubt. A series of random unfortunate events, for the Mad
Mullahs and their flunkies.
The mahdi was unavailable for comment.
