Statement No. 4
- Clerical regime claims responsibility for savage terrorist crime

The state-run Jomhouri-Islami daily, the organ of the mullahs' dominant faction, commented this morning on the June 9th terrorist car bomb attack on the Mojahedin in north Baghdad, which led to the deaths of six members of the Mojahedin and wounding of 21 others as well as dozens of casualties from innocent Iraqi civilians.

Jomhouri-Islami wrote: "The leaders of the American Arrogance could not keep themselves from condemning" the Mojahedin and "in various statements and interviews, the American officials have stressed on the terrorist nature of the Mojahedin and their actions..."

The daily added: "Yet beyond all these imaginations and thoughts, God's revenge comes every once in a while when it is the Almighty's will to burn the Mojahedin in the fire of His rage," and "Now, it is happiness and joy that fills the hearts of believers with the news of deaths of the members and activists of the Mojahedin in Iraq."

In this way, the official organ of the ruling mullahs confirms the Mojahedin's statements about the crimes of the clerical regime and its mercenaries.

Now, one has to see whether the U.S. officials-- whose shameless positions against the Mojahedin have so encouraged the savage and unbridled terrorism of the religious, terrorist dictatorship ruling Iran --have any comments on yesterday's terrorist crime and the multitude of its victims? No doubt, the people of Iran will make an unambiguous judgment in this regard.
