We all got to see the British hostages as they arrived at Heathrow with their nifty, almost Louis Vuitton-looking gift bags from the Iranian regime. According to Achmedinejad, their release was a gesture of goodwill. An Easter gift.

As the hostages were still in the air on their way home, lunatic that he is, Ahmadoinajihad, quite obviously and clearly sent the world a much louder, and more honest, message. Four British soldiers were brutally killed in a stunning Iranian-made high-powered IED attack. Now they were killed in an area in which no Britons had been killed for awhile, the shiite/Iranian area of Basra. And they were killed at a moment of great show for Ahmadoinajihad, so there’s basically no way any of his minions would have dared to wreck his big Peace Message Moment, without his express instructions. The moment and the incident were far too symbolic, so the message was loud and clear: “Fuck You…I’m here to kill, I’m here to win, I’m here to wage war on Iraq, The U.S. and Britain, until your Lefist parties and media make you run home.”

Crater from EFP attack on Brits in Basra

Fact sheet on Ahmodoinajihad’s War Message while his Peace Message was still in the air:

- The IED-style strike employed the very first use of a huge Iranian EFP ( Explosively Formed Projectile )in this area, and took out an incredibly well-armored 25 ton British vehicle, the FV510 Warrior. All of it’s occupants were killed. The FV510 is designed to withstand large mortar-style IEDs and direct heavy machine gun fire. It took the sophisticated, factory made Iranian EFP to kill the four Brits inside. Basra’s police chief, Major General Mohammed al-Moussawi, warned that this type of explosive so far had not been used in the area.

- Days before the attack, Coalition forces intercepted a shipment of infra-red triggered EFP’s in the Shatt Al-Arab waterways, coming from Iran. This is the same narrow waterway that the Brits were seized in, and it is this very type of arms shipment that the Brits were looking for.

- The attack occured at 0200 near Hayaniya, a slum outside Basra that is a haven for Moqtada Al Sadr’s Mahdi Army. It has been reported that 4,000 members of the Mahdi Army have been trained in Iran. After the bomb went off, a sophisticated rpg and small arms fire ambush was launced by the Iranian proxy troops as well.

Again, given the carefully deliberate lethality of the attack on British forces, at the very moment the hostages were arriving back on British soil, it is astoundingly clear that this attack was a direct message from the Iranian regime. I’ll leave it to you to interpret that message.

And the latest gift? Today’s bombing in Baghad….more on that in just a bit…
