Just days after left-wing British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband shook hands with the Islamic Republic of Iran’s top diplomat at the U.N., U.K.authorities arrested five men with possible links to Tehran who allegedly sought to bomb a military base in Fairford used by American forces.Armed officers arrested the five suspected terrorists who were traveling in three vans reportedly packed with explosive material.
The authorities seized the five British nationals and the vans a mere 350 yards from the military base, which is used by the U.S.army to launch air strikes against military targets in the Islamic Republic of Iran.Speaking from London on Monday, Nile Gardiner, the Director of the Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom at the Heritage Foundation, told Fox News Digital that "I think it is highly likely it was an Iranian orchestrated attack.
