UK Bombed Own Capital says Iran Cleric
TEHRAN, (Reuters) - A leading Iranian cleric said on Friday the British government could have orchestrated last week's bombings in London to stir up flagging enthusiasm for British military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, who heads Iran's top legislative watchdog the Guardian Council, blamed British Prime Minister Tony Blair and U.S. President George W. Bush for the growth of Islamic militancy.
'The other likelihood is that the British regime may have carried out the attack itself ... because it benefits most... They tell people 'if we don't fight terrorism, this will happen to you,'' the cleric continued.
Jannati's remarks echoed editorials in Iran's hardline press that argued the attacks smacked of a plot by the British government to justify anti-Muslim reprisals and military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Talk about wacked out! I can just imagine Mr. Bean driving thru Picadilly Circus with a car bomb strapped to his roof.
Them there I-ray-nee-an clerics sure are smart.....
Imagining that "Mr. Bean did it" (alt173, above) may be very similar to what both Tony Blair and the Iranian cleric did: THEY ALL IMAGINED IT!!!
Where's the beef? Where's the evidence? Where is the proof? Maybe alt173 deserves to be on TV and in the newspapers just as much as the Tony Blair and the Mullahs?
Which group has more EVIDENCE and a better theory of the London Bombings -- Tony Blair & the G8, the Iranian clerics & the UK, or alt173 & Mr. Bean?
Mr. Bean & Alt173 get my vote, because Mr. Bean really can be that stupid. Tony Blair & the Iranian clerics may not be that stupid.
WHERE'S THE BEEF??? ... Where's the evidence??? ... Where's the proof???
