Targetting Tehran: the case of the missing Iranian general

14-03-2007 15:57

Very little of the detail appearing in the media about the recent unexplained disappearance of a top Iranian general, Brigadier General Ali Reza Asgari, including his age, can be taken at face value.

Anti-nuclear protestors block a road in Parliament Square in London Wednesday March 14, 2007. Lawmakers from Prime Minister Tony Blair's party planned a major rebellion Wednesday over a proposal for a multibillion-dollar (-euro) nuclear missile defense system - a program critics claim could undermine efforts to stem the weapons ambitions of Iran and other countries. Blair has told the House of Commons that Britain's fleet of four nuclear-armed submarines - due to be phased out from 2022 - should be replaced to meet possible future threats from rogue regimes and state-sponsored terrorists.
