For anyone who still naively believes the West can engage the Islamist regime in Tehran (and that includes the Obama administration and the Brown government) think again. The next Iranian Defence Minister will almost certainly be General Ahmad Vahidi, wanted by Interpol (along with four other Iranians) for the infamous 1994 anti-Semitic terrorist attack on a Jewish centre in Buenos Aires, that claimed 85 lives.
The Sunday Telegraph’s Philip Sherwell profiled Vahidi back in November 2007 when he served as deputy defence minister, and identified him as a major player in Iran’s nuclear programme:

k1s1000, There is no

i don't know vahidi well, but i don't hold the 1994 bombing against him
You are mistaking IRI for Zio-Nazis
