Event #5089 Bomb attacks against Israeli diplomats in Delhi and Tblisi
Date: Monday, 13 Feb 2012

Gareth Porter reports:[1]

But a review of the evidence uncovered thus far makes the link to Iran begin to look very dubious. Instead, it points to the distinct possibility that the Israelis planned a carefully limited bomb attack that was not intended to cause serious injury to Israeli diplomatic personnel, but that would advance the larger Israeli narrative on the need to punish Iran.
