parsi who is with the national iranian american council he told me of the saudis are involved in this attack and it could escalate tensions with iran to a wall forcing. not once have we referred to this attack as a terrorist attack and i think it's very important that we do so because it was a terrorist attack it's often referred to as an attack on a military parade but this is much more of a memorial day parade because many of the victims were civilians and many of the folks that were actually in military gear are conscripts who have mandatory duty to go into the military for two years in iran and they have no choice as to whether they will be placed in the higher g.c. or any other part of iran's defense system so if we refer to the attack on the u.s.s. cole a warship as a terrorist attack and certainly this needs to be that referred to as a terrorist attack as well in regards to what the saudi crown prince said he made it very clear that he is going to be looking to take the fight inside of iraq now we don't know if the saudis were involved in this yet no evidence has been presented
