Iranian official warns al-Qaida operatives will attack U.S. if they don’t accept nuclear program

wnd.com reported that a senior Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander has warned America and Europe that al-Qaida operatives will soon attack them.

……..The plan is, the source said, that if in the next six months America does not accept Iran’s nuclear program and does not ease sanctions or a military confrontation occurs, the terrorist assets have been ordered to carry out their missions. The regime feels it must act by then because current sanctions, which have already had a serious effect on Iran’s economy, could spark civil riots.
