Iran opens garrison to recruit suicide bombers against West: "A military garrison has been opened in Iran to recruit and train volunteers for ?martyrdom-seeking operations?, according to the garrison?s commander, Mohammad-Reza Jaafari.

Jaafari, a senior officer in the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), told a hard-line weekly close to Iran?s ultra-conservative President-elect Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that the new ?Lovers of Martyrdom Garrison? (Gharargahe Asheghane Shahadat, in Persian) would recruit individuals willing to carry out suicide operations against Western targets.

The full text of the original interview in Persian can be seen on the weekly?s website at www.partosokhan.ir/283/page08.pdf .

?The Lovers of Martyrdom Garrison has been activated and we will form a Martyrdom-seeking Division for each province in the country, organised in brigades, battalions and companies to defend Islam?, Jaafari told the weekly Parto-Sokhan."
