Turkish authorities seized weapons hidden among construction materials on a Syria-bound train from Iran after Kurdish guerrillas bombed and derailed the train, a prosecutor said Wednesday.
The cargo was discovered when authorities checked containers on the train, which was attacked by separatist Kurdish guerrillas on May 25 near the town of Genc in southeastern Bingol province, Prosecutor Ismail Sari told reporters Wednesday.
Iran denies all knowledge. Kind of funny that a terrorist attack exposed a terrorist state, actually. What else has been shipped through Turkey or elsewhere to transit Syria to points beyond?
Those arms would have been a great help to the terrorists outside Tripoli confronting the Lebanese army as the army seeks to destroy the Fatah Islam terrorists:
Lebanese tanks and armored vehicles battled their way into the outer neighborhoods of a Palestinian refugee camp Friday in some of the heaviest fighting since violence broke out between the military and al-Qaida-inspired militants nearly two weeks ago. Can we destroy the mullahs now?
How many more fronts will be active before this war is over?
UPDATE: The Lebanese army has been joined by helicopters from their air force:
Army tanks shelled militant hideouts in the Nahr el-Bared camp by this northern port city, blasting upper floors of buildings where the militants placed snipers.
A Lebanese air force helicopter fired two missiles and strafed militant positions in the first use of airpower since fighting began with the Fatah Islam group on May 20. The air attack was an apparent attempt to block an escape route to the Mediterranean Sea.
The Lebanese appear serious about destroying this group. Our aid has surely stiffened their resolve.
