Attackers bomb Iran parliament and mausoleum, at least 12 dead: Iranian media - Skorp - 06-07-2017
Quote:Suicide bombers and gunmen attacked Iran's parliament and the Mausoleum of Ayatollah Khomeini in Tehran on Wednesday morning, killing at least 12 people in a twin assault at the heart of the Islamic Republic, Iranian officials and media said.
Islamic State claimed responsibility and released a video purporting to show gunmen inside the parliament building and one man, who appeared wounded, on the floor.
The rare attacks were the first claimed by the hardline Sunni Muslim militant group inside the Shi'ite Muslim country. Iran is one of the powers leading the fight against Islamic State militants in neighbouring Iraq and, beyond that, Syria.

It is almost impossible to 100% prevent these kinds of attacks. That derive from a belief that killing inocent lives gains them any kind of spiritual sanctuary. I too am saddened by this news.

I heard about this on the news break (TV) just before logging In here.
Once a given terrorist Incident happens, another seems to follow.
Truly depressing news.

It's only because they don't have a Rothschild's Bank.
