| Bomb Kills Several in Southern Iran Apr 12 04:20 PM US/Eastern By ALI AKBAR DAREINI Associated Press Writer Write a Comment TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - A bomb explosion in a mosque in southern Iran Saturday killed several people, state television reported. Television report said several people had been killed and an unspecified number were wounded in the bombing in the city of Shiraz, about 559 miles south of the capital Tehran. The semi-official Fars news agency said eight people were killed and more than 66 injured. Fars said the death toll was expected to rise because some of the injured were in critical condition. The official IRNA news agency said several people were injured but added that no official reports were yet available on deaths. There was no immediate explanation for the discrepancies in the reports. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the explosion. Local official Mohammad Reza Hadaegh told state TV the cause of the blast was under investigation. Fars said the force of the explosion shook houses more than a half mile from the site of the bombing and ambulances and firefighters were rushing to the mosque. Although bomb attacks are rare in Iran, the predominantly Shiite Muslim country has faced several ethnic and religious insurgencies that have carried out sporadic, sometimes deadly attacks in recent years. None have amounted to a serious threat to the government. In February 2007, a car loaded with explosives blew up near a bus carrying members of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, killing 11 of them and wounding more than 30 in southeastern Iran. A Sunni militant group that has been blamed for past attacks on Iranian troops claimed responsibility. Some believe that group, known as Jundallah, is linked to al-Qaida. Jundallah, or God's Brigade, has been waging a low-level insurgency in southeastern Iran. Besides the violence in the southeast, ethnic Arab Sunni militants have been blamed for bombings in the western city of Ahvaz near the border of Iraq—including blasts in 2006 that killed nine people. __________________ "If you can read this, thank a teacher.

Iranian casts doubts on Sept. 11 attack, ground zero deaths By ALI AKBAR DAREINI, Associated Press Writer Wed Apr 16, 11:24 AM ET TEHRAN, Iran - Iran's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad cast doubt Wednesday over the U.S. version of the Sept. 11 attacks, calling it a pretext used to invade Afghanistan and Iraq. Although Iran has condemned the 2001 al-Qaida attacks on New York and Washington in the past, this was the third time in a week that Ahmadinejad questioned the death toll, who was behind the attacks and how it happened. "Four or five years ago, a suspicious event occurred in New York. A building collapsed and they said that 3,000 people had been killed but never published their names," Ahmadinejad told Iranians in the holy city of Qom. Under this pretext, the U.S. "attacked Afghanistan and Iraq and since then a million people have been killed only in Iraq," Ahmadinejad said in the speech broadcast live on state-run television. On the last anniversary of the attacks, the names of 2,750 victims killed in New York were read aloud at a memorial ceremony. In Washington, the State Department rejected the comments out of hand, calling them "another example of misinformed misguided rhetoric" from the Iranian leader. "I am not sure what one says about a statement like that," spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters. "It leaves one speechless. It is misguided, misinformed rhetoric. I can't tell you whether or not it is something he truly believes or if this is just a warped attempt to try to shape public opinion in Iran or elsewhere." Last year, Ahmadinejad raised questions over the attacks, saying "what caused it, what were the conditions that led to it, who truly was involved" needed to be examined. Ahmadinejad has said the attacks were a result of "mismanaging and inhumane managing of the world by the U.S." and should not be turned into another Holocaust "used for slaughtering people." Although Iran has condemned the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, the campaigns toppled the Taliban and Saddam Hussein, two regional threats to Iran. __________________ "If you can read this, thank a teacher.
