Iran is conducting anti-U.S. operations from Latin America, including military training camps in Venezuela, and expanding its reach across the border from the U.S. in Mexico, according to footage unveiled late Thursday by the largest Spanish-language network in the United States, Univision.

The documentary showed a former Iran senior official accepting a plan to launch from Mexico a cyber war on the United States, one that would cripple U.S. computer systems, including the White House, the FBI, the CIA and several nuclear plants. The official, former Iranian Ambassador to Mexico Mohammad Hassan Ghadiri, was shown accepting the offer from undercover Mexican university students. A trailer to the documentary can be seen here.

The documentary also showed the undercover Mexican students presenting plans for the cyber attack to Venezuelan officials in Mexico. The Venezuelan official was very receptive to the plot, saying that she was close to Venezuela’s hard-leftist President Hugo Chavez and that she would love to share the information with him as soon as possible. The same happened with Cuban officials in Mexico, who were equally interested in a plot against the United States.

The students in the documentary appeared to have conducted a sting operation similar to the reports carried out by the American journalist James O’Keefe in the U.S.

The documentary, called “The Iranian Threat,” said that undercover journalists were also able to infiltrate Iranian military training camps working from mosques in Venezuela, though it showed no actual footage of the camps. Univision alleged there were links between the alleged camps and a radical Muslim implicated in the 1994 Buenos Aires bombing of a Synagogue that killed 85 and wounded hundreds. The Iranian lives in Argentina, a country which also has strong ties to Chavez.

Venezuela and Iran are effectively the “silent partners that can be disavowed” of the SCO.

Don’t be surprised by this, I participated in a strategic sim as Venezuela about five years ago and *thought* I had pushed things with actions I considered “over the top” or as the expected caricature of Chavez’s regime …however, so far Hugo has done most of the things I did…just slower in most cases.

Participation in expanding SCO aligned spheres of influence in Central/South America and the Caribbean being one of those actions. So this report doesn’t surprise me in the least.

Is a vote for a republican next fall a vote for war with Iran? Inquiring minds want to know.

You and your peers already tried that scare tactic with Bush… remember how Bush was planning an invasion before he left office, according to you all?

Apparently, Greg, you aren’t the only lib/prog who really should be giving up the seer/tarot card reading business, and sticking to your day job.
