    Re: OBL found in Sabzevar, Iran

    I concur, an excellent thread hijacking.

    Relating to the topic, anyone surprised at the Saudis not playing nice with Iran OR Bin Laden isn't well-enough informed. Bin Laden has ALWAYS been public enemy #1 of the Saudi royal family, and his ultimate goal has been to take over that country from the beginning. His little "jihad" on America is nothing but a Middle Eastern power play. I don't really feel like going into details at the moment, but if you do a little research, you'll find that he's just simply another politician who's not afraid to get his hands dirty to get what he wants, and what he wants is to be in charge of Saudi Arabia. I had studied this in college prior to the 9/11 attacks actually, and was in a class discussing it at the moment they bombed the World Trade Center actually, which certainly made people take class a bit more seriously. This game of his has been going on for a very long time. It gets even more complicated when you look into the fact that we seemingly purposefully have not captured him. That part leads to conspiracy theories, however, and I'm not really sure where I stand on all of that. It could just be that it's been too politically difficult for us to pursue Bin Laden in places where he's been hiding. Who knows on that one...

    Oh, and Iran... Iran also wants to control the Middle East just as Bin Laden does, though their aims are more imperial than his. Thus, they are also a huge threat/enemy to the Saudis. The Iranians and Bin Laden are not necessarily best friends, but you know how that is, "a enemy of my enemy is my friend." The Middle East is just one massive political minefield.

    Personally, I don't think Obama has the marbles for this one. He's probably there to try and stop Israeli warplanes from doing their job.

    Iran on war alert over "US and Israeli concentrations" in Azerbaijan
    DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 23, 2010, 1:23 PM (GMT+02:00)
    Tags: Azerbaijan Iranian war preparations US-Israel

    Iran's land forces on the ready
    In a rare move, Iran has declared a state of war on its northwestern border, DEBKAfile's military and Iranian sources report. Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps men and equipment units are being massed in the Caspian Sea region against what Tehran claims are US and Israeli forces concentrated on army and air bases in Azerbaijan ready to strike Iran's nuclear facilities.
    The announcement came on Tuesday, June 22 from Brig.-Gen Mehdi Moini of the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), commander of the forces tasked with "repelling" this American-Israeli offensive. He said: "The mobilization is due to the presence of American and Israeli forces on the western border," adding, "Reinforcements are being dispatched to West Azerbaijan Province because some western countries are fueling ethnic conflicts to destabilize the situation in the region."
    In the past, Iranian officials have spoken of US and Israel attacks in general terms. DEBKAfile's Iranian sources note that this is the first time that a specific location was mentioned and large reinforcements dispatched to give the threat substance.
    Other Iranian sources report that in the last few days, Israel has secretly transferred a large number of bomber jets to bases in Azerbaijan, via Georgia, and that American special forces are also concentrated in Azerbaijan in preparation for a strike.
    No comment has come from Azerbaijan about any of these reports. Iranian Azerbaijan, the destination of the Revolutionary Guards forces reinforcements, borders on Turkey, Iraq and Armenia. Witnesses say long IRGC convoys of tanks, artillery, anti-aircraft units and infantry are seen heading up the main highways to Azerbaijan and then further north to the Caspian Sea.
    On Tuesday, June 22, Dr. Uzi Arad, head of Israel's National Security Council and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's closest adviser, said "The latest round of UN Security Council sanctions on Iran is inadequate for thwarting its nuclear progress. A preemptive military strike might eventually be necessary."
    DEBKAfile's intelligence and Iranian sources point to three other developments as setting off Iran's war alert:
    1. A certain (limited) reinforcement of American and Israeli forces has taken place in Azerbaijan. Neither Washington nor Jerusalem has ever acknowledged a military presence in this country that borders on Iran, but Western intelligence sources say that both keep a wary eye on the goings-on inside Iran from electronic surveillance bases in that country.
    2. Iran feels moved to respond to certain US steps: The arrival of the USS Harry S. Truman Strike Group in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea and its war games with France and Israel, which included live-fire bombing practices against targets in Iran.
    3. The execution of Abdolmalek Rigi, head of the Sunni Baluchi rebel organization (including the Iranian Baluchis), on June 20 was intended as a deterrent for Iran's other minorities. Instead, they are more restive than ever. Several Azeri breakaway movements operate in Iranian Azerbaijan in combination with their brethren across the border. Tehran decided a substantial buildup in the province would serve as a timely measure against possible upheavals.

    Israel setting up Saudi base for Iran raid?

    msnbc.com news services
    updated 2 minutes ago

    An Iranian allegation that Saudi Arabia is allowing Israel to use its terroritory in preparation for attacking Iran nuclear sites has stirred a flurry of reports in the Israeli media.
    The allegation could not be independently confirmed, and the Saudis deny cooperating with the Israeli military.
    The Jerusalem Post website on Sunday said reports that the Israeli military had established a base in Saudi Arabia originated with Iranian and Israeli news outlets. The Jewish Telegraphic Agency and Ha'aretz were among Israeli media carrying the reports credited to Fars, the semi-official Iranian news agency. The Fars report was also picked up buy international outlets such as UPI.

    The reports said the Israeli base is about five miles from Tabuk in northwest Saudi Arabia.
    The Islam Times said Israeli airplanes landed at an international airport and Israeli soldiers unloaded military equipment on June 18 and 19. Saudi officials canceled commercial air traffic and, one traveler told the Islam Times, paid to put up passengers in nearby four-star hotels to prevent them from expressing anger.
    Tabuk, the closest Saudi city to Israel, is just south of Jordan, the Post said.

    Earlier deal reported
    The claim follows a report two weeks ago in the London Times Magazine that Saudi Arabia had given Israel permission to fly through a narrow corridor of airspace in northern Saudi Arabia to shorten the flight time Israeli jets need to reach Iran.

    Rest of story

    Third US carrier, 4,000 Marines augment US armada opposite Iran
    DEBKAfile Exclusive Report June 28, 2010, 10:45 PM (GMT+02:00)

    debkafile's military sources report that Washington has posted a third carrier opposite Iran's shores. It is supported by amphibious assault ships and up to 4,000 Navy and Marine Corps personnel, bringing the total US strength in these waters to three carriers and 10,000 combat personnel.
    The USS Nassau (LHA-4) Amphibious Ready Group 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit, tasked with supporting the Bahrain-based 5th Fleet area of operations, is cruising around the Bab al-Mandeb Straits where the Gulf of Aden flows into the Red Sea. Its presence there accounts for Tehran announcing Sunday, June 27 that its "aid ship for Gaza" had been called off, for fear an American military boarding party would intercept the vessel and search it. This would be permissible under the latest UN sanctions punishing the Islamic Republic for its nuclear program.
    The third US carrier group to reach waters around Iran consists of three vessels:
    1. The USS Nassau Amphibious Assault ship is not just an enormous landing craft for the 3,000 Marines aboard; its decks carry 6 vertical take-off AV-HB Harrier attack plans; four AH-1W Super Cobra, twelve CH-46 Sea Knight and CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopters, as well choppers convertible to fast V-22 Osprey airplanes capable of landing in any conditions.
    This vast warship has 1,400 cabinets for sleeping the entire Marine-24th Marine Expeditionary Unit aboard.
    2. The amphibious transport dock ship USS Mesa Verde which carries 800 Marines equipped for instantaneous landing.
    3. The amphibious dock landing ship USS Ashland which carries 400 Marines and 102 commandos trained for special operations behind enemy lines.
    debkafile adds: The USS Ashland was the target of an al Qaeda Katyusha rocket attack in 2005 when it was docked in Jordan's Aqaba port next door to the Israeli port of Eilat. One of the rockets exploded in Eilat airport. The ship exited harbor in time to escape harm.
    These new arrivals are a massive injection of naval, air and marine muscle to the strength Washington has deployed in the Persian Gulf-Red Sea-Indian Ocean arena in recent months. The USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group consisting of twelve warships is cruising in the Arabian Sea opposite Chah Bahar, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards biggest naval base not far from the Iranian-Pakistan border. It is there that most of Iran's special commando units are housed.
    Also posted in the Arabian Sea, further to the west, is the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower Strike Group.
