Iran is widely suspected of involvement in the bombing of a Jewish community center in Argentina in nineteen ninety-four. That attack killed eighty-five people. And Iran has killed Iranian dissidents in other countries. But Patrick Clawson of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy says Iranian intelligence has lately avoided plots like that.
PATRICK CLAWSON: "I’m not surprised it was the Quds force involved, if these allegations are true, because the people from the Ministry of Intelligence are really too bright and understand the world too well to agree to such a hare-brained scheme. Whereas many of the people in the Quds force are really quite uninformed about the world outside of Iran and might have thought that they could have gotten away with such a thing, and that if they pulled it off that it would somehow help Iran."
And that's IN THE NEWS in VOA Special English. I'm Alex Villarreal.
