For A Good Laugh? Iranian Officials Say Bin Laden Was A 'Zionist' And American Pawn

So get this: Ismail Kosari, who is a member of the Iranian parliament’s Security and Foreign Policy Commission and a close ally of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, says we have it all wrong. Bin Laden was not a Islamic extremist. He was actually….an Israeli agent designed to make Islamic extremists look bad! In his words:

Bin Laden a Zionist tool, not Islamic extremist

“He was just a puppet controlled by the Zionist regime in order to present a violent image of Islam after the September 11 attacks…Bin Laden’s death reflects the passing of a temporary US pawn, and symbolizes the end of one era and the beginning of another in American policy in the region.”

Another member of the Iranian commission agreed. “Javad Jahangirzadeh said, “The West has been very pleased with bin Laden’s operations in recent years. Now the West was forced to kill him in order to prevent a possible leak of information he had, information more precious than gold.”

Trust us. It’s just us peaceful guys here in Tehran. Really.
