According to Ahmadinejad, “the three countries announced they were planning an attempted killing of Iranian members, which was shortly followed by the Shiraz mosque crime.” He added that “thanks to the Iranian intelligence efforts, the explosion executors were quickly arrested and admitted their ties to the Zionist rule, the US and Britain.” (Dudi Cohen)
