The Sinister Targeting of Israel's Ambassador in London Follows Iran's Agenda
(Spectator-UK) Jake Wallis Simons - The baying crowd that surged around Israeli ambassador Tzipi Hotovely at the London School of Economics on Tuesday perceived themselves as simply supporting the oppressed, sticking up for the underdog. But a closer look among the Palestinian flags revealed other, less easily recognizable banners: those of Kata'ib Hezbollah, a radical Iraqi Shi'ite paramilitary group funded by Iran, and a group called Innovative Minds, a pro-Iran organization that has carried at least one tribute to a suicide bomber on its website. Students, convinced of the righteousness of their cause, are being utilized by more sinister forces to further the agenda of Iran and its sympathizers.
