It isn't true yet, but it will be

The US Government has once again called on the self-proclaimed Iranian government in exile to surrender itself to a fair trial. The Commander-in-Chief warned the militant Islamic group that they had "nothing to gain from hiding in caves".

Iran has been occupied by American, British, Israeli and Uzbek troops since the invasion more than a decade ago. The United States had accused Iran of building nuclear weapons with which to threaten the almost non-nuclear states of America and Britain, and the officially possibly-nuclear state of Israel.

The search for nuclear weapons in Iran was officially called off only eighteen months after the invasion, so there is still no definite information about the nuclear threat from the country. However, most experts believe that Iran's nuclear arms programme has been successfully pre-empted.

The Iranian government fled before the terrible beauty of the invasion and its whereabouts are currently unknown. Various locations in Syria and Lebanon were bombed in the aftermath of the invasion in the hope of pre-empting their use as bolt-holes; but the effectiveness of aerial disinsurgentisation measures is still a point of some debate between the military and political authorities.

Intelligence sources have long suspected that the ex-governmental Iranians are in hiding somewhere in the Middle East. It is believed that some of them may have assumed false identities and may be posing as refugees or members of other local professions. Law-abiding citizens of the region have been advised to emulate coalition policy by keeping a benevolent eye on their neighbours.

"These people are cowards and fanatics who have a savage hatred of everything we hold dear," said the Commander-in-Chief today. "They cannot stand up to a fair fight, so they choose to hide in caves and manipulate suiciders like straw men from behind closed doors."

Despite their hatred of democratic values, said the Commander-in-Chief, the terrorists would ultimately benefit from western attitudes whether they liked it or not: "We promise them a fair trial if they give themselves up, and an even fairer one if they give each other up," he said.
