Another Miss: Ahmadinejad Cancels Trip Just Before Bomb Blasts
What's it take to kill this maniac?
The first bomb went off at 9:30 a.m. at Saman Bank and the second 30 minutes later at the government office for natural resources.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had been expected to meet his cabinet in the city, but the trip was canceled Monday evening. His office said the four-day trip was canceled because of bad weather, the IRNA news agency reported Monday. The explosions occurred at the time he had been expected to make a speech in Ahwaz.
...
Mostafa Pourmohammadi, the interior minister, said the bombings on Tuesday were motivated by foreigners. Mr. Ahmadinejad ordered the Intelligence and Foreign Ministries to investigate "the role of foreign hands" in the bombings, the ISNA student news agency reported.
"The president has ordered a prompt and firm probe into today's blast and the terrorists who executed it," a government spokesman, Gholam Hossein Elham, was quoted as saying.
"Iran has always been victimized by terrorism, and these blind blasts show the continuity of brutal acts against Iran by international terrorists," he added.
Uh-huh.
