Jundallah and Hersh

By Dave Anderson:

Here is the BBC on the suicide bombing in Iran that killed some of the Revolutionary Guard's top leadership:

Iranian state television said 31 people died in the attack, in the
Pishin region of Sistan-Baluchistan, and more than 25 were injured.

Shia and Sunni tribal leaders were also killed. A Sunni resistance group, Jundullah, said they carried it out.

Here is Seymour Hersh on Jundallah in the summer of 2008:

One of the most active and violent anti-regime groups in Iran today is
the Jundallah, also known as the Iranian People�s Resistance Movement,
which describes itself as a resistance force fighting for the rights of
Sunnis in Iran. �This is a vicious Salafi organization whose followers
attended the same madrassas as the Taliban and Pakistani extremists,�
Nasr told me. �They are suspected of having links to Al Qaeda and they
are also thought to be tied to the drug culture.� The Jundallah took
responsibility for the bombing of a busload of Revolutionary Guard
soldiers in February, 2007. At least eleven Guard members were killed.
According to Baer and to press reports, the Jundallah is among the
groups in Iran that are benefitting from U.S. support.

Just keep this in mind when the Iranians blame US support for bombings in Baluchistan --- there has been plenty of smoke in that direction for years now.
