Proving once again that nobody conspiracy-theorizes like an Iranian mullah, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei announced today that US and Israeli agents are behind the beheadings, kidnappings, and terror bombings in Iraq: Ayatollah: U.S. Supports Iraq Insurgency. (Hat tip: Jihad Watch.)

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran’s supreme leader on Tuesday accused U.S. and Israeli agents, not Muslims, of responsibility for the wave of beheadings and kidnappings in Iraq, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei also described terrorism as a “loathsome, horrible” and said fighting it was “of great importance.”

In comments made during a meeting with visiting Singaporean Prime Minister of Singapore Goh Chok Tong, Khamenei said: “We seriously suspect the agents of the Americans and Israelis in conducting such horrendous terrorist acts and cannot believe the people who kidnap Philippines nationals, for instance, or behead U.S. nationals are Muslims.”
