    I just can't reconcile this idea of the IRGC being a super, awesome, dangerous, killer organization, and their (at least public/known) fails. They looked like amateurs. Were these the "real" thing, or just some dudes to got a little bit of training and were told to go blow up stuff? I guess we'll neve know, but I just can't get to terms with that dichotomy.
    Like other similar organizations, you're not gonna hear their successful operations spilled in public either.

    A Kenyan police officer has told a court that two Iranians accused of planning attacks on Western targets in Kenya had shipped more than 100 kilograms (221 pounds) of a powerful explosive.

    Iranian nationals Ahmad Abolfathi Mohammad and Sayed Mansour Mousavi are charged with preparing to commit acts intended to cause grievous harm after they were arrested and allegedly led officials to a 15-kilogram (33-pound) stash of the explosive RDX.

    Kenya convicts two Iranians of planning to attack Western, Israeli targets


    Magistrate Kaire Waweru Kiare said Thursday the prosecution has proved beyond reasonable doubt all counts against the two.

    Ahmad Abolfathi Mohammed and Sayed Mansour Mousavi were charged with preparing to commit acts intended to cause grievous harm after they were arrested in June 2012 and led officials to a 15-kilogram (33-pound) stash of the explosive RDX.

    "I must appreciate our Kenyan security personnel for detecting and taking swift action to stop the catastrophe and ensure our country was safe," Waweru Kiarie, Nairobi's chief magistrate, said after convicting the two men.

    Iranian agents are suspected in attacks or thwarted attacks around the globe in recent years, including in Azerbaijan, Thailand and India. Most of the plots had connections to Israeli targets.

    Kenyan anti-terror officials said the Iranians are members of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Quds Force, an elite and secretive unit.

    Last year, when the two suspects were apprehended, officials said that they may have been planning attacks on Israeli, U.S., British or Saudi Arabian interests in Kenya.

    Several resorts on Kenya's coast are Israeli-owned, as is Nairobi's largest and newest shopping mall. Militants bombed an Israeli-owned luxury hotel near the coastal city of Mombasa in 2002, killing 13 people, and tried to shoot down an Israeli airliner. An Al-Qaida operative was linked to those attacks.

    On June 12, 2012 the two Iranian suspects arrived in Kenya and traveled to Mombasa, Opagal's affidavit said, adding that they returned to Nairobi on June 16 after receiving the explosive from an accomplice who is still at large. Opagal said that after their arrest on June 19 in Nairobi they led officers to some of the explosives hidden at a Mombasa golf course.

    it sounds like iranian government couldn't save these terrorists.
