70,000 Iran suicide bombers ready to fight Israel - Taiwan News Online

Quote:
More than 70,000 Iranian student volunteers have registered to carry out suicide bombings against Israel because of Israel's assault on the Gaza Strip.
According to the official IRNA news agency, hardline student leader Esmaeil Ahmadi says the students want to fight Israel in support of Hamas _ Gaza's Islamic militant rulers.

Five hard-line student groups and a conservative clerical group launched a registration drive last week to ask the government to allow them to stage the suicide attacks.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's government has not responded to the call yet.

The government never responded to similar requests in the past. This raises the likelihood that the calls are mainly for propaganda purposes.

Likely. If only a few did it after the announcement, unless the Iran's Government acted against, it would be considered an act of war from Iran. Ahmadinejad knows that.

Maybe they are trying to put psychological pressure over the Israeli civilians.

This piece of news is complete bollocks, an Iranian (or maybe even American, Israeli etc) propagandistic hoax. I mean, how would those alleged suicide bombers manage to get into Israel/Palestine in the first place??? Since Israel controls all communications and can block anyone's access to either West Bank or Gaza?

70,000 suicide bombers? Imagine them running at you!

The story is likely a piece of propaganda, but I'm sure the ranks are already full of those willing to take some kind of action.

Iran Bans Activists From Fighting Israel

Ayatollah Attempts to Cool Rhetoric After 70,000 Students Seek Permission to Attack Israel

Posted January 8, 2009

Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei announced today that he would ban Iranians from leaving the country to carry out suicide attacks against Israel. The ban is an attempt to silence calls by Iran’s far right to take a direct role in confronting Israel on its attacks on the Gaza Strip.

Earlier this week it was reported that student groups had solicited over 70,000 volunteers to participate in suicide bombings against Israel in response to the war on Gaza. The volunteer drives were a response to a statement in which Khamenei declared that anyone killed defending the people of Gaza would be considered a martyr.

The volunteer drive started off slow, but swelled after Israel began its ground invasion to include an enormous number who sought permission from President Ahmadinejad to head for Israel. Ahmadinejad was under growing pressure to grant the request, though Khamenei’s ban suggests his comments were not intended to organize the people of Iran to go to Israel to fight in the war. He did however say that Iran would assist Hamas in other ways.
