Iraqi minister says US and UK spies arrested in Iraq; Iran meddling
Iraq-UK, Politics, 11/2/2005

Iraqi Interior Minister Bayan Baqir Jabr on Tuesday termed the allegations that Iran is meddling in Iraqi affairs as "ridiculous."

IRNA reported: "As I have repeatedly told, Iran has nothing to do with Iraq's developments, those in the southern region in particular, he told the Iraqi TV channel Al-Fayha.

He noted that some countries have activated their intelligence services in Iraq, saying, "Let me tell a piece of truth to the public in Iraq. We have arrested a number of US and UK intelligence elements."

He noted that while Iran has repeatedly been accused of involvement in Iraq, some intelligence elements from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Britain and the US have been arrested in Iraq but Baghdad would not disclose details.

The allegations point to the fact that some countries are not willing to see the process of evolving a new sovereign government in Iraq succeed, he concluded.

1. That is strange ...

Arresting agents of the occupying forces? This fellow must be another "Baghdad Bob"!

2. The US/UK is attempting to blame Iran and Syria for the

mess in Iraq in order to widen the control of Multi-Natl. Corps in the ME. The Iraqis are merely pawns in the large Globalization Agenda of the US/UK.

3. In accordance with wartime practice, spies should be executed. n/t
