A major terrorist attack took place in Iran’s Zahedan Friday, killing 19 people, mostly police, and a Revolutionary Guard commander.
Details are still emerging, but attackers were linked to a Baluchistan separatist group called Jaish al-Zulm which made a run at a mosque and police station. They also set a fire engine afire, and burned a bank.
Protests were held at the mosque earlier in the day, and it seems likely that the attack was somewhat related to that.
Baluchi separatists are active in Iran and Pakistan, and envision a Sunni Islamist state. Iran has long accused Israel of backing these groups.

Count on it. Along with the US.
We are highly versatile.
Well, they were helping injuired ISIL fighters in the Golan Heights, so I certainly wouldn’t put it past them. To take on Iranian police and an IRG commander in their own back yard takes organisation, money and weapons.
Gee, we couldn’t have anything to do with it , could we?
Iran separatists?
Foreign state sponsored terrorists.
That is how it will be treated, and rightly so.
Baluchistan is a gateway. It has the paw prints of gulf countries.
There was a coup in Burkina Faso and an Ebola outbreak in Uganda. Dont forget to blame the US for those too.
