Some 42 people died last month in a bombing the rebel group claimed to have perpetrated. “How is it possible that this guy can move freely [unless he is] under the protection of the intelligence services?” righteously inquires the most honorable Brigadier General Hossein Salami, the no. 2 guy in the Guards.
