Mahabad Bomb Kills 10

Attack during military parade

BBC: Ten people have been killed and at least 20 wounded in a bomb attack on a military parade in north-western Iran. No soldiers died, but most of the casualties in the town of Mahabad were said to be women and children. A provincial governor blamed "counter-revolutionaries" for the attack, which came on the 30th anniversary of the start of the Iran-Iraq war. Militants have long been active in the area, which is home to a sizeable Kurdish population. There have been reports of Kurdish political activists being arrested, tried and executed in recent months >>>

اطلاعيه كميته مركزي كومه له در محكوم كردن بمبگذاري جنايتكارانه در صفوف مردم شهر مهاباد 

ساعت ده صبح روز چهارشنبه 31 شهريورماه، انفجاري در محل "فلكله مادر" حد فاصل برج توتونچي و پل حكمت در شهر مهاباد و در ميان جمعيتي كه اكثريت آنها را زنان و كودكان تشكيل مي دادند، بوقوع پيوست. آخرين خبرها حاكي از آن است كه در اين رويداد حداقل 12 نفر جان خود را از دست داده اند و 45 نفر نيز به شدت زخمي شده اند كه تعدادي از زخميها جهت مداوا به بيمارستان اروميه انتقال يافته اند.

كميته مركزي كومه له نهايت تاسف خود را از اين رويداد ابراز ميدارد و به بازماندگان جانباختگان اين رويداد و مردم شهر مهاباد صميمانه تسليت مي گويد و خود را در اندوه آنان شريك مي داند.

خبرهاي رسيده از شهر مهاباد حاكي است كه رژيم با بهره برداري از اين رويداد فضاي امنيتي و نظامي شديدي را بر شهر حاكم كرده است.

وقوع چنين رويدادهايي در كردستان بي سابقه است و همه شواهد حاكي از آن است كه تنها رژيم جمهوري اسلامي است كه از نتايج چنين رويداد تاسف باري بهره مند ميشود. از اينرو افكار عمومي در شهر مهاباد، انگشت اتهام را به سوي دستگاههاي اطلاعاتي و امنيتي رژيم نشانه رفته است.

كميته مركزي كومه له، اين رويداد را به شدت محكوم مي كند و براي خنثي كردن‌ اقدامات تفرقه اندازانه رژيم جمهوري اسلامي، خواهان انجام تحقيقات مستقل مردمي، خارج از حيطه دست اندازي رژيم، براي روشن شدن جزئيات اين جنايت مي باشد.

Demo

And What If

by Demo on

this was a "heroic" act of a suicide bomber whose dad/family had been killed by Sepah/Basij before? And what if he/she had "No Fear" of offering his life for bringing back to life of the “dead”, or for waking up of the “mesmerized” crowd around him/her watching the same/re-run of the Sepah’s parade in front of the same lifeless puppeteers/"K's" portray??

PS: Consider the positive side of this tragic event. The regime will fail from now on to bring out people to watch the same types of outdated parades with their naked feet & with their empty stomachs!!!

 


divaneh

Most probably the work of IRI

by divaneh on

We are all aware of the division inside the regime and rivalries between AN and other centres of power such as Larijani brothers and Khamenei. This will best serve those factions and they are the most likely perpetrators. It can create unrest in Kurdistan and give IRI the opportunity to kill more innocents and create more fear whilst it discredits AN in New York. Akhonds will put the devil to shame.

I feel sorry for the innocent victims of this cowardly act.

this no fear dude is way too emotional.....(ha ha, that's their line). Besides, he's swearing too much.

khaleh mosheh

this is clearly

by khaleh mosheh on

the work of IRI to try an discrdit the anti regime forces. 

Again innocent people are paying with their lives for the IRI games to keep the abominable hands of Ahmadinejad and Khamenei on power. 


Roozbeh_Gilani

Mr or Mrs "No Fear" is swearing like a crazed bassiji

by Roozbeh_Gilani on

because not many more Kurdish women and children were murdered by his islamist regime scum bag terrorist paymasters in this cowardly terrorist attack on defenceless unarmed Kurdish people.

This coward, hiding behind this laughable user ID, has in many previous blogs openly stated his hatred for the Kurdish people!

Yes, I too noticed the similar writing style between this cyber bassiji and others, Haji firooz and al_farsi!

 


No Fear

Targol,

by No Fear on

Not only you did not address the motives, timing, location and the primary targets which all points to the involvement of PJAK in this terrorist act, you are now starting another non sense arguement.

First you tried to nail it on IR by arguing the "cinema rex" incident which happened 30 years ago and now you are claiming the kurdish movement is a peaceful movement which believes in social activism in methods like strikes and such.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Are you telling me that the kurdish groups are not armed and they believe in a peaceful struggle? Who is arming those scums anyway? Those fuckheads don't even believe in prisoner exchange. Every single body of a captured Iranian soldier has returned to Iran, headless and decapitated. I know a man who washed the headless body of his son before burying him to rest.  And you tell me these scums are advocating general strike and are against violence.?

Yeah sure ...  try harder for another laughable reasoning.

 


Hoshang Targol

Fearful one, you just don't get it. That's why AN is your man

by Hoshang Targol on

( it even rhymes!). In Kurdistan we deal with social problems POLITICALLY. That means we don't kill, harm or harass people, and call for UNCONDITINAL POLITICAL FREEDOMS. Why? Because it works.

Our response in Kurdisatn to the execution of those 5 martyrs was A GENERAL STRIKE, why? Because it works. When everything is shut down, and no one is in the streets, not only your government can't kill any one, the whole society is shut down. Very simple notion.

Most probably this is way over your head, but for once in your life, even you  might want to try to read some useful material. The one I have in mind is an essay by Walter Benjamin( yes he was Jewish), "Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction," in it he explains how Fascist ( people like you) aesthetize ( prettify, glorify) violence, and how critical minded folks ( like us ) politicize violence.

But don't get too hung on critical theory, cause your time is up. Just like monarchy before you, you're in your death pang stage, pretty soon we shall be dealing with a whole new circumstances in Iran. Next!

Escape

Well why don't you just

by Escape on

Well why don't you just blame the Jews?Go ahead and blame Mossad.Or the US.I don't expect much more intelligence to come out of it than that.It is been ok to consciously to overlook the Terrorists blowing up people in Iraq and Afghanistan and just blame the US,for being there.People have made it their job to take away the actual murderer's Responsibilities of so many THOUSANDS of deaths and handed their blame to the US..These people act like they are so intelligent and rightous its pathetic,they are nothing but sickening terrorist supporters.Some have even gone so far to call them -Freedom Fighters.Blowing up innocent people is somehow -fighting for freedom.They do it ALL THE TIME for how long now? I never knew innocent women and children were taking away freedom from people or that it should be overlooked when they are victims of that plaque of terrorism that 'occupy's the Middle east..We should be united against fighting terrorism all together.

 


No Fear

Targol and Vilde ..

by No Fear on

Killing innocent people is wrong and immoral no matter how you look at it. Whether it is carried out by IR or any other group it should be condemned.

But your hate and activism against your enemy ( IR, my government ) should not prevent you to rationally and logically examine the possibility that this crime was done by the kurdish seperation groups. As i have suggested and have yet to see a valid arguement against my take on the issue.

Consider the following;

If during this terrorist attack, military personnels of the sepah were killed ( the primary targets ), would that make you think differently?  Wouldn't you hail such an attack?

This bomb was planted in a tree ( possibly before the parade ) and those who did it , were targetting the parade itself. I don't think they knew that area would be designated for women observers of the parade.

If you consider motives, timing, location, and the primary targets they all point to a perfect opportunity for PJAK to strike. If scores of revolutionary gaurds were killed during this parade, PJAK would be the Iranian of the day on IC while you guys hailing their fight towards freedom and democracy.

Elementary you " fearful" one, mullahs came to power through

by Hoshang Targol on

ploys such as Cinema Rex, stayed in power through fiascos such as US Embassy BS, and are clinging to power through incidents such as this one in Mahabad. If you weren't such a bleeping blind you would have surly see the connection. Your days are numbered, cheers

 


vildemose

Fearful one!

by vildemose on

this was planted by the same people who

planted and planned to plant bombs inside the Imam Reza Shrine in Mashad

and Massoumeh Shrin in Qom,

both concucted by Ministry of Intelligence's Saeed Emami, aimed to kill and harm innocent people and to create a public distrust of IRI's opposition, whoever they are.

Kurdish rebels would not kill their own women and children.

 

Shifteh jon: I couldn't agree more. This has MOIS written all over it. Kurdish rebels don't need to resort to this sort of things. The entire population supports them and is against IRI with the exception of few Mozdoor and jasoos.

NF: You are full of  poppycock battiness as always. Your so-called proof amounts to nothing but a bunch of groundless old ,tired Goblesque malarkey.

As someone said before, "you're a legend in your own mind".

BTW, Your writing style is very similar to Sargord Pirouz, or Mark. 


No Fear

Targol Margol,

by No Fear on

I have given ample of rational explaination such as motives, timing, location and the primary targets to support my case against kurdish seperation groups.

You, on the otherside, are refering to an incident 30 years ago ( cinema rex ), to nail this on IR.

Sorry, I am going to stick to my arguement unless you have something more tangible to add to this specific event in Mahabaad.

 

 


Hoshang Targol

Thou, the most "fearful one," hiding behind that repugnant face,

by Hoshang Targol on

The only bleeping blind in here seems to be you, if you hadn't taken such a sepration  from reality, you might , just might have remembered that

ENTIRE KURDESTAN RESPONDED TO THE EXECUTION OF THOSE 5 MARTYRES, BY A GENERAL STRIKE IN KURDISTAN, CALLED BY KOMALA. That was back in May do you recall.

So, if your AN's claim of "freedom" in Iran is so true, why all these political-prisoners in Iran, what's with all these executions, attacks on people's houses. You remind of those SAVAKI agents of way back, they repeated their BS for so long they really believed in their lies, of course untill all the walls came tumbling down. Your walls are coming down much, much sooner that you imagine, you cowardly, pathetic,vile, lie.

Do you remember Cinema Rex, what was that all about? 


Onlyiran

I don't care who's behind it

by Onlyiran on

My condolences to the family of the innocent civilians who lost their lives, and I wish a speedy recovery for the innocent injured victims.

I agree with COP.  Bombings never get anyone anywhere.   

 


Souri

Yeap!

by Souri on

Exactly!

And you just said that"

" There are at least three Komala's in Iranian Kurdistan, and a few more
in Iraq. I checked all three of them and none have issued anything,
because they don't need to."

what was that? An accusation of me, having lied (having invented that new).....Yes or no?

Did you say a word about the news I just posted below? No!

BTW:  this news was on the net since hours, so if you had checked really, you would find it on the web, like I did!!

Next time take more time before accusing others of anything.


Hoshang Targol

Calm as a clam, and then some,

by Hoshang Targol on

As far "those debates," and claims of "separationism" and all that other hogwash, of course it wouldn't be suitable, simply because such accusations are just that: accusations, and figments of chauvinists' imagination.  

 


No Fear

Most likely PJAK

by No Fear on

How could you call this an internal IR job when Ahmadinejad is in New York promoting Iran as a country where everyone is free to express their opinion and safe country for its citizens? Why give the reporters more juicy subjects to nail Ahmadinejad on ethnic minority discriminations by pointing to bombings in ethnic minority cities?

This was an attempt by kurdish seperation groups ( most likely PJAK ) in response to the recent execution of 4 of their militant fighters. They picked the best time and location for their terrorist act against their direct enemy. It will be bad publicity for Ahmadinejad in New York while it will kill Iranian soldiers and any person who goes out to watch and support the parade.

Now, however, I don't  think any kurdish group would claim responsibility for this attack since mostly women and children were the victums of this attack.  But if this bomb was successful in its primary targets ( Iran's Sepah personnel military ), then they would have claimed responsibility and many anti Iranian cheerleaders on this site would have hailed their struggle against the rapists sepahis and basijis on this site congratulating PJAK in their fight against IR.

But, since women and children are dead as a result, it must be IR that is behind the killings.

Fucking wow ... how fucking blind can you be ....

 


Souri

Mr Hoshang, calm down

by Souri on

I have no time to answer all your questions here and even if I had time, not sure if I will be willing do go through those debates, not with you at least

For now, I just copy the anouncement of the Koueleh deploring that event, here below

 


اطلاعیه کومله در محکومیت انفجار مهاباد

اطلاعیه دبیرخانه کومه¬له در محکومیت انفجار در شهر مهاباد

در خبرهای روز چهارشنبه 31 شهریور ماه آمده است که ساعت 10 و 30
دقیقه صبح، هنگام برگزاری مراسم رژه نیروهای مسلح ارتش جمهوری اسلامی،
انفجاری قوی در نزدیکی این مراسم و در میان مردم غیر نظامی و مدنی به وقوع
پیوسته است. بنا به آمارهای ارائه شده توسط مسئولین دولتی، 11 زن و بچه در
این انفجار کشته شده و بیش از 50 نفر بر اثر این انفجار زخمی شده اند.
مسئولین دولتی مسئولیت انجام این انفجار و حرکت تروریستی را به گردن احزاب
مخالف جمهوری اسلامی تحت نام "ضد انقلاب" انداخته اند.
حزب کومه له، انجام اقدام تروریستی بمبگذاری و انفجار آن در میان مردم
مدنی توسط هر گروه و دسته¬ای که باشد را به شدت محکوم می¬نماید. بعید نیست
که مسئول انجام این اقدام تروریستی، خود سران امنیتی رژیم در کردستان
باشند. جنبش رهایی بخش کردستان و احزاب سیاسی آن در طول بیش از سی سال
مبارزه¬ی آزادیخواهانه¬ی خود علیه رژیم جمهوری اسلامی، سنتاً با انجام
عملیات انتحاری و بمبگذاری بیگانه بوده و اینگونه اقدامات را مذموم و محکوم
نموده¬اند.
امنیتی کردن بیشتر فضای کردستان و تلاش برای تقبیح نمودن چهره احزاب سیاسی
کورد، تلاشی است نافرجام و عوامفریبانه جهت تحریف افکار عمومی. لازم است که
کلیه رسانه¬های مستقل و اپوزیسیون دمکرات و آزادیخواه، در راستای افشای
این توطئه جمهوری اسلامی کوشا و فعال باشند.

i agree with shifteh....

by shushtari on

it's very likely the mullahs are behind this......it would serve the evil interests very well


vildemose

IRI is an old hand in this

by vildemose on

IRI is an old hand in this sort of things. This has all the marking of MOIS  covert operations such as the ones in Venezuela, Germany (Mykonos) etc....

Who benefits from killing women and children? Not any of the opposition groups operating in the Kurdistan area....


Hoshang Targol

Harpi-Eagel & Souri

by Hoshang Targol on

HG, if you recall it was actually Montazeri who had told the arsonists that their action would be following his decree. All of this was revealed in the court. Parvis Sayad had an absolutely great play with that name : "Cinama Rex." As for as documentation of that crime, the journal " Chashm Andaz," published in Paris by Prof.Pak'Daman also had a series of articles. Probably the best source of the whole sordid affair. 

 

Souri, I'm sure you don't mean to be insulting but you're comments here are borderline offensive:

1st) "tajzieh talabi of Kurdistan was always on the program,"

please enlighten us with your vast knowledge of people's movement in Kurdistan, when and where and from which individuale or group or party, did you read about this "tajzieh talabi," was it Ghasemloo, Hezb Demoktratik Kuresdtan, Komala,....?

Could it be that after 31 years Tudeh party propaganda siding with Khomeini against the people, and calling for the people's movement in Kurdistan to be crushed, is till lingering somewhere there in your unconscious, ZAMIR NA AGAH.

2nd) There are at least three Komala's in Iranian Kurdistan, and a few more in Iraq. I checked all three of them and none have issued anything, because they don't need to. Any one with the slightest knowledge of the history of struggle in Kurdistan knows that  these kinds of atrocities have no place in the people's movement in Kurdistan, the only ones who might think otherwise are the uneducated, chauvinist outsiders still caught in propagandas of 31 years ago.

And last but not least: "But also I doubt that it comes from the IRI, itself.  I don't think so." Oh REALLY, Cinema Rex, burning of bookstores, throwing acid to womens face, all the behind the scene machinations of mullas killing each other. After all these years of being subjected to the most devious of tricks, ploys and deceptions, you  just can't imagine these god fearing mullahs do anything like this can you? I guess that old saying really applies here:

YOU COULD TAKE THEM OUT OF THE PARTY, BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THE PARTY OUT OF THEM! and  have a nice day.


reader1

Idiotic to suggest that IRI had a hand in this …

by reader1 on

This is more likely to be the work of a ruthless al-qaeda like group with no respect for human life.  I say this with full respect for those Kurdish Iranians who are fighting for a democratic free Iran and a devolved  Kurdistan.  

My thoughts are with the families of the innocent civilians murdered by these the lowest of the low animals.

Koumeleh has denied the responsiblity for the bobming

by Souri on

so far, Koumeleh has denied that it was from them and also they said they deplore the death of the innocent civil Iranian.

But also I doubt that it comes from the IRI, itself.  I don't think so.


Harpi-Eagle

Cinema Rex (Part II) ...

by Harpi-Eagle on

May I remind everyone of how the IRI founding fathers (Khamenei and Co.) came up with that murderous conspiracy also?

Again in the eternal words of Charlton Heston in "Planet of the Apes", I say to Seyed Ali, Mahmoud Chita and all the other goons of IRI, "Damn you, damn you all to hell".

Bombs?

by Shifteh Ansari on

Oh please, this was planted by the same people who planted and planned to plant bombs inside the Imam Reza Shrine in Mashad and Massoumeh Shrin in Qom, both concucted by Ministry of Intelligence's Saeed Emami, aimed to kill and harm innocent people and to create a public distrust of IRI's opposition, whoever they are.

Kurdish rebels would not kill their own women and children.

These are desperate actions of a desperate government ruled and managed by morons who see the only way to stay in power through creating false crises, division amongst people, and division between the nation and its government to the point where there is no mutual trust.

The worst part is that the more the Islamic Republic loses grip on power, the more heinous and horrible their concucted plans would become.  Brace yourselves for worse things in the coming months. I am heartsick at the loss of human life and the looming prospect.
