Tell Bush there are no AQ guys in Iran, that they didn't use Iran to travel through, that they are "mortal enemies". He'll sleep much better.

The American diplomats were not "wanted" in their own embassy ? Is that why they were kept there for 444 extra days ?

I was under the impression that among civilized nations, when you want to get rig of diplomats, you just tell them to go.
Must be the Ayatollah definition of hospitality...

ST,
And iraq is secular and thus an enemy of al quaida too. But for saddam and the ayotollahs the US is enemy #1 so a tactical alliance is not out of the question. Al quaida hiding out in iran is widely known i thought. What is not known is the degree of official tolerance of this, if any. Mike
