Keeping Their Eye on the Ball

At least the Argentinians are still keeping their eye on the ball. A judge has issued a warrant for Iran's Rafsanjani.

The federal judge also issued international arrests warrants for eight other ex-Iranian officials.

Last month, Argentina accused former authorities in Tehran of masterminding the attack on Buenos Aires' Jewish Centre in which 85 people died.

Iran has rejected the charge, describing it as a "Zionist plot".

Iranian authorities were accused by Argentine prosecutors of directing Lebanese militia group Hezbollah to carry out the attack, which also injured 300 people.

Hezbollah has also denied its involvement in the attack.

My earlier coverage is here. Prosecutors got their wish from the judge. The trick will be doing something about it. Don't expect the Iranians to help.
