. . . AND IRANIAN CHUTZPAH

NEW YORK POST
Editorial
February 7, 2007

Get this: Iran is griping that one of its envoys was kidnapped in Baghdad.

Iran - complaining of a kidnapping.

We're talking the world's leading terror sponsor - a regime that practically invented modern-day terror-snatching.

And whose meddling in Iraq, by the way, has almost surely fueled the horrific violence there - causing untold deaths.

What do the mullahs expect when they support terror - especially in Iraq?

Or when their president vows to wipe America's ally, Israel, off the map - and to defeat America itself, for that matter?

It was the kidnapping of an Israeli by Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists that ignited last summer's war in Lebanon.

Recently, U.S. forces detained eight Iranians in Iraq, and President Bush has OK'd the killing or capture of any Iranian agent in Iraq who's seen as a threat.

Meanwhile, in Gaza, Palestinian authorities captured seven Iranians - including a general - at a Hamas-controlled university where they reportedly ran a bomb factory in the chemistry labs.

As for Tehran's nuclear ambitions, let's not even go there.

No wonder Sunni Arab countries like Saudi Arabia and the Gulf emirates are waking up to the Iranian menace.

Tehran can complain all it wants about a single kidnapping. But it's only reaping what it has sown.

The mullahs should thank Allah that the world has been so restrained in confronting its terror.

For the time being, that is.
