Just heard about this, not sure how I missed it. Very sad. :(

At least six dead, Israel blames Iran.

-why should Israel be stupid enough to loudly blame Iran? What could the government of Iran potentially gain from blowing up a busworth of Jewish tourists in Bulgaria?

-the attitude on the hungarian nazi portal (hosted in the US of A, btw) on this is appaling.

Irans been attempting to blow up lots of stuff recently. Maybe it's true. If it is true, why shouldn't they loudly blame them.

Question:  Why would a bunch of Israelis go to Burgas on vacation?  I realize that it's a coastal resort, but what can you get there that you can't get in Tel Aviv? :hmm:

It's also a lot cheaper. Ex-coworker was from Burgas. Her family had a house 5 minutes from the beach, so they spent a couple weeks there during summer.

Israeli newspapers are reporting that the bomber was an Algerian-Swedish Islamist who had been released from Guantanamo Bay. Shits about to hit the fan. Lefties are gonna say that Guantanamo made him a terrorist and the Righties are gonna say that it was stoopid to release him.

He was released july 2004. But the Pakistanis had him as recently as 2009.

the page has been updated to report that the swedish intelligence has denied that it was him...

I don't know if you know this, but in israeli culture, vacation = travelling abroad, otherwise is not a "real" vacation.
- Where did you go on vacation this year?
- Tell Aviv.

That makes sense in such a small country.  I've heard good stuff about the Black Sea resorts actually.  Are there maybe closer ties between Israel and Bulgaria given that Bulgaria's the only Axis country that didn't ship their Jewish population to the concentration camps?

The Iran connection seems to be based on Bibi's statement and intelligence behind that's not public yet.  If so it could be a shift for  Hezbullah.  If they're involved this is the first suicide bomb they've been involved in since the BA Embassy attack 20 years ago.  That could mean something more, though I'm not sure what.

It was my understanding that Finland didn't either.

At any rate, so this guy had a fake Michigan ID.  Has anyone accounted for Rich Rodriquez's whereabouts?  We all know that he wasn't a real Michigan man.
