It is clear that USA can be involved in it as always. Bush warned Iran and he blowed these poor people in mosque up thanks to big help of his Arabian cooperators - extremists from al- qaeda ( he gave money to murder them. What do these Arabs want? What needs have they? Why do these cranks and criminals commit such tragic genocides and crimes against humanity? They can leave all normal nations and come back to their big Saudi country in which their ,,pseudovalues,, are nursed and give peace to the countries in which they are unwanted minorities. Their crimes will give serious, sorry effects for their nation at last.
