The new minister of defense of Iran has direct ties to the suicide bombing in Beirut that killed 241 Marines in 1983.

Mostafa Mohammad-Najjar, a veteran commander of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, was named today to the top military post by the new government.

On Oct. 23, 1983, he was a senior commander in the Revolutionary Guards in charge of the expeditionary force in Lebanon. At 6:22 a.m. that morning, a suicide bomber drove a large water delivery truck to the Beirut International Airport where the U.S. Marine barracks were located. The bomber and his accomplices had hijacked the original truck on its way to the airport and sent another one, loaded with explosives, in its place.

After turning onto an access road leading to the compound, the driver rushed through a barbed-wire fence, passed between two sentry posts, crashed through the gate, and slammed into the lobby of the barracks. The huge explosion crumbled the four-story building, crushing the soldiers to death while they were sleeping.

All the windows at the airport control tower, half a mile away, shattered. A crater eight-feet deep was carved into the earth, and 15 feet of rubble was all that remained of the four-story Marine barracks.

I have a strange feeling of deja vu.

We should invade some uninvolved country over this!

So what?
Their president has tie to the US Embassy kidnapping and to a Vienna bombing :2 cents:

have a feeling he will have a bunker buster in his lap soon enough:)
