US: Iran Supporting Taliban In Afghanistan
UNITED NATIONS, (Pajhwok Afghan News): The United States Ambassador to the UN, Zalmay Khalilzad, charged Thursday that Iran is helping the insurgent groups in Afghanistan and Iraq.
And since Iran is seeking regional hegemony and has ties with terrorists organizations, it is time for the international community to prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons; he told the media at the UN soon after the IAEA released its report on Iran.
Because Iran is seeking regional hegemony, because Iran has ties with terrorists organizations, because Iran supports insurgent groups in Iraq and in Afghanistan, because of rhetoric of the Iranian leaders given all that it is a defining issue and therefore the international community as a whole has a stake in doing all that we can diplomatically to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapons capability, Khalilzad said.
For the past several months, the US has been charging Iran of helping the terrorists organizations in Afghanistan with arms and ammunition. Its officials have even produced alleged Iranian built weapons in Afghanistan captured from the militants. However, the Afghanistan Government has always insisted that there has not been any such concrete evidence, though there have been some reports in this regard and it is watchful on this issue.
Khalilzad said after the IAEA report it has become clear that Iran is going ahead with its nuclear program. As a result the US believes that there is need to move forward with another resolution in the Security Council under Chapter 7, to impose additional sanctions on Iran, he said.

Iran, the land with it’s fingers in pools of blood from Afghanistan to Syria to Lebanon to Gaza, will one day find it’s fingers severed and drowning in its own blood.
