I guess it's better late than never
Argentine prosecutors charged Iran and the Shiite militia Hezbollah with the 1994 bombing of a Jewish charities office in Argentina that killed 85 people and injured 300.Prosecutors demanded an international arrest warrant for then-Iranian president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani and six other top Iranian officials at the time of the attack, and a former Hezbollah foreign security service chief, Imad Fayez Moughnieh.
(via memeorandum )
Secular Blasphemy draws a reasonable (but frightening) conclusion
Also, it is probably a good idea for Europeans to take note that Iran just threatened it with war over European support for Israel. This is what they mean.
Lawhawk possibly sees something positive in Argentina's action
The bastards in Iran have never been held accountable for their proxy terror groups' actions over the years. Perhaps this is the start of a pushback against Islamic terror (and especially against the Iranians, who have caused much grief for Israel through Iran's support for Hamas and Hizbullah).
Daimnation though sees that there may be less here than meets the eye.
Neither the country nor its government has been "charged", individuals have been named. Furthermore, if you read the AP story at the end of the post, it would appear that no formal legal charges have yet been issued. Prosecutors have rather recommended to a judge that he issue arrest warrants; it seems to me that charges as such will not exist unless the judge actually issues the warrants.
Incidents like the terror attack in Argentina remind us that though the Jihadists may claim that they only hate/oppose Zionists and not Jews; they really see the two as synonymous.
