Report - Pentagon Plans For Three Day Blitz On Iran

By Homeland Security NTARC News | September 2, 2007

Theodore Roosevelt – “The unforgivable crime is soft hitting. Do not hit at all if it can be avoided; but never hit softly.”

————————————-

The Pentagon has drawn up plans for massive airstrikes against 1,200 targets in Iran, designed to annihilate the Iranians’ military capability in three days, according to a national security expert.

Alexis Debat, director of terrorism and national security at the Nixon Center, said last week that US military planners were not preparing for “pinprick strikes” against Iran’s nuclear facilities. “They’re about taking out the entire Iranian military,” he said.

Debat was speaking at a meeting organised by The National Interest, a conservative foreign policy journal. He told The Sunday Times that the US military had concluded: “Whether you go for pinprick strikes or all-out military action, the reaction from the Iranians will be the same.” It was, he added, a “very legitimate strategic calculus”.

President George Bush intensified the rhetoric against Iran last week, accusing Tehran of putting the Middle East “under the shadow of a nuclear holocaust”. He warned that the US and its allies would confront Iran “before it is too late”.

One Washington source said the “temperature was rising” inside the administration. Bush was “sending a message to a number of audiences”, he said � to the Iranians and to members of the United Nations security council who are trying to weaken a tough third resolution on sanctions against Iran for flouting a UN ban on uranium enrichment.

Toronto Canada - Letter Bomb Mystery Deepens - Suspect Arrested

By Homeland Security NTARC News | September 1, 2007

Adel Mohamed Arnaout, suspected of sending three of the letter bombs under arrest.

A gutted red bungalow known by neighbours as the “Bombay Bunker” was the focus of an intensive police search overnight by bomb squad investigators probing a string of attempted letter bombings here and in Guelph.

Police, who have one man under arrest, are investigating the manufacture of at least six explosive devices – three sent to unwitting recipients here and in Guelph during the past several weeks, and three found in the trunk of a rental car stopped Thursday night at an Esso station at Overlea Blvd. and Thorncliffe Park Dr. in Don Mills.

“We don’t have a motive at this point,” Toronto police Const. Wendy Drummond said. “We do know that the three victims – the two in Toronto and the one in Guelph – were not chosen at random.”

The discovery of the bombs in the car led to a day of high drama in a city unused to bomb threats. Officers, unable to safely disassemble the devices, decided to explode them on the remote Leslie St. Spit, and shut down the Don Valley Parkway’s southbound lanes around noon for the convoy transporting the explosives.

Terror Comes To Mexico

By Homeland Security NTARC News | September 1, 2007

Officials say more than 10,000 people were evacuated from Mexico’s Torre Mayor, Latin America’s tallest tower, after a bomb scare involving a suspicious vehicle parked in front.

Police were tipped off by an anonymous caller who said an explosive was inside a car and identified the vehicle’s number plate, Mexico City police chief Joel Ortega said.

Bomb squad members discovered a device attached to a mobile phone inside the car, which had been stolen on August 14, and were in the process of analysing the nature of the device, he said.

There were no immediate claims of responsibility for the bomb scare, which also forced the removal of 2,400 cars from the building’s parking lot.
