UK Authorities Admit It: Iran’s IRGC Coordinated Attack on U.S.-Used Airbase

After promptly releasing all the terrorists they had in custody and all but ignoring reports of others who escaped after the attempted attack on an American-used airbase, UK authorities are now admitting that the attack was almost certainly directed straight from Iran and through its most murderous terrorist division.

The same prime minister who recently reaffirmed his dedication to not restricting mass migration from Muslim countries is now pretending he is concerned that an Iranian citizen planned a terrorist attack on UK soil. “I can confirm our assessment that it is highly likely to have been coordinated in Iran, almost certainly directed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard,” Prime Minister Andy Burnham told lawmakers, according to Stars and Stripes. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is not only the Iranian regime’s military, responsible for coordinating a global terror network, but it also massacred tens of thousands of people within Iran this year. 

BREAKING: Britain says it is almost certain Iran's regime is behind the terrorist plot at RAF Fairford, and says it will take action. I don't believe them. When Israel took action against Khamenei and the Islamic Republic, Britain chose to stand on the sidelines and refused to allow US Air Force use its bases. Britain's leadership chose appeasement over doing the right thing. With the regime in Iran, an iron fist is the only option.

Burnham added, “We will not tolerate these threats on our soil.” He promised to crack down on Iranian criminal networks and sanction the regime.

Except his actions contradict his words: All six or seven suspects arrested are already out on bail, and UK authorities have yet to file any charges. Meanwhile, the British regime is holding “Danny Tommo,” the man who organized the masked but peaceful protests in Dover against mass migration, without bail. The reality is that, in Britain now, a native who criticizes the government is far more likely to end up in prison than a criminal foreigner trying to commit terrorism.

In fact, if it hadn’t been for a local farmer who accidentally happened upon the vans of terrorists and kept pestering authorities until she finally reached someone, the attack on RAF Fairford would likely have gone through successfully.

Initially, British authorities simply said over and over that all of the suspects they arrested (and released) were UK nationals, but now we know at least one of them was an Iranian national with dual citizenship. The German Press Agency (DPA) reported that the British government has finally issued travel bans and asset freezes for two Iranians suspected of directing the plot: Ruhollah Bazghandi, head of counterespionage operations within the IRGC, and Shahram Ali Reza Tamarzadeh Jakki of the Zindashti criminal network.

The likelihood is that the reason Burnham and Co. do not want to release names and details of the suspects is that they are all or almost all Muslims who either obtained naturalized citizenship or are first-generation children of national security threats. UK authorities don’t want to admit that their immigration system is incredibly broken. If the names of the suspects didn’t give away important information that contradicts a prevailing socialist narrative, the authorities would not be so concerned about releasing them.
