Well it appears that Iran has been having some trouble I'll dig into this for more info. EDIT: I'm sure the Anti-US/Israel crowd are going to have a field day with this one.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, which was condemned by Iran's Parliamentary Speaker.
Iran has previously accused a Sunni resistance group, Jundallah, of terrorist activities in the province.
Sistan-Baluchistan is mainly made up of the Baluchi ethnic group who are Sunni Muslims, some of whom oppose Shia rule.

Iraq killed 100,000 Iranians in the 80s, why don't they seek out revenge? I know why because America did it for them as in get rid of Saddam, now that Saddam is out of the way they want protection from America and Israel and they hate Iraq because it is no longer under Islamic rule. When it was under Islamic rule Iran was at war with them, so no pleasing these people, blame Israel because Muhammad says so. Don't stop the violence in India, Somalia or Pakistan and all your Islamisation conquests, just sit there and blame Israel for the world's problems.

Such theories completely ignore the plight and frustration of the Iranian people and their motives to carry out such an attack.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad vowed Sunday to strike back at those behind a suicide bombing that killed five senior commanders of the elite Revolutionary Guard and at least 26 others, the official IRNA news agency reported.
"The criminals will soon get the response for their anti-human crimes," IRNA quoted him as saying. Ahmadinejad also accused unspecified foreigners of involvement.

If Israel/US were going to attack soon that's a sure sign. Decapitation IMO. I wouldn't have paid much attention to it but with all that has been transpiring over the past 6 months or so. This seems very fishy to me.

Now, that might be chasing the terrorists from Pakistan into Afghanistan and Iran????
That would be a clear reason behind the terrorist bombing in Iran.
The bomber struck what was to be a reconciliation meeting between Shiite and Sunni tribesmen to calm sectarian tensions in the southeast. The region is a tangle of disenchanted clans and sects that claim they have been persecuted for generations. Jundallah and other groups pose no serious threat to the Iranian government, but they are capable of deadly ambushes against state and Shiite institutions, including a bombing at a mosque in May that killed more than 20 people.

I don't think so because the attack killed five senior military members. If Iran wanted to pull a false flag they would kill innocents and then garner the support of the people, like the U.S. did. Why would a black ops mission kill their top generals? Makes no sense. And how could a lone islamist nut get that close to top members? It had to have been Mossad/CIA

They're trying to provoke Iran to respond first
If that fails to work, they will go through with their pre-emptive strike.
I am depending on the free world to make this the last "pre-emptive" strike these barbarians make. It's coming, we all know it. Let's get it over with.
