Tehran attacks, GOPer says they 'maybe Trump strategy'

A US congressman says a recent deadly attack by Daesh Takfiri terrorists against Iranian people may be American President Donald Trump's "strategy."

Republican Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, 69, who is a member of the US House of Representatives representing California's 48th congressional district, made the provocative remarks on Thursday, during a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Lebanon's Hezbollah resistance movement.

Rohrabacher, while apparently hailing the deadly attacks as a positive development, said he believed that the terror attacks were conducted by "Sunni forces," which he said had to be provoked to stage attacks in Iran.

Rohrabacher's comments came a day after several gunmen stormed Iran's parliament and the Mausoleum of Imam Khomeini in two coordinated attacks. At least 17 people lost their lives and nearly 50 others were wounded in the assaults, which involved shootings and blasts. Daesh claimed responsibility for the near-simultaneous assaults.

Rohrabacher's remarks came on the same day as Trump made contradictory comments on the Tehran attacks, almost condemning the victims instead of the Daesh terrorists.
