 WASHINGTON (AFP) - A top US commander Friday accused Iran of
meddling in Iraq's elections, saying it invested heavily in political
parties in the south and seeks to influence the formation of a new
government.

have tells us they invested heavily in political parties supportive of
Iran in the south," said General George Casey, who commands US forces
in Iraq.

Baghdad – As part of a campaign to ensure the victory of its Shiite
allies in the parliamentary elections, Iran attempted to buy votes in
the southern Iraqi provinces for a list it backed during Thursday’s
presidential elections in Iraq, according to reports received by Iran
Focus.
In al-Qadisyah, the capital city of al-Diwaniyah province, Iranian
agents offered secular Shiites money and food to participate in the
polls and cast their ballots in favour of the United Iraqi Alliance
(UIA), led by Tehran’s long-time ally, Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim, the Shiite
cleric who heads the Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq
(SCIRI).

The Washington Times Editorials / Op-Ed By
Hossein Abedini - It was 15 years ago, but still seems like yesterday.
In mid-afternoon on March 14, 1990, I was sitting next to the driver
taking me to the Istanbul airport, when we hit a traffic jam caused by
an accident. Suddenly, a car carrying four men blocked our path.
Another car pinned us in from behind. Seconds later, two men, one from
the front car and one from the car behind, raced out with automatic
guns.
