Report: Among Dead Hezbollah Terrorists, Bodies of Iranian Troops Recovered

Israeli Channel 10 is reporting that members of Iran's Revolutionary Guard have been found among Hezbollah terrorists killed by Israeli forces in southern Lebanon. It said the Iranians were identified by documents found on their bodies, but gave no further details on how many were discovered or when. Neither the IDF nor Hezbollah representatives in Beirut had immediate comment on the report.

Iran, like fellow Hezbollah patron Syria, insists its support for Hezbollah is purely moral, but many of the rockets being fired are Iranian made and Hezbollah terrorists themselves have admitted under interrogation to being trained in Iran.

Millions of Iranians would be eternally grateful if Israel and/or the U.S. would extirpate these so-called revolutionary guards the "Pasdaran" and their auxiliaries "Basiji". These brutes are intensely hated by ordinary Iranians. The Iranian patriots do clash with these "Pasdaran" and "Basiji" thugs once in a while and do take down a few of them. But there is only so much ordinary people with no military training and essentially no arms can do against a shamelessly ruthless opponent who is armed to the teeth and has the full weight of the state behind him.

If you have any pictures of any documents or arms or equipment with clearly visible markings that those dead Revolutionary Guards may have had with them; I could read and translate the material for you if you post these somewhere.

Huh. Well, if they weren't there than Iranians can't ask for their bodies.
