'The secretary’s vague allegation of Iranian involvement in the Kabul attack surprised regional experts and a former U.S. diplomat, who said it would be unusual for Iran to launch an attack inside the Afghan capital. '
'At the time, the Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, with spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid telling the Associated Press in a phone interview that 10 U.S. troops were killed — a common exaggeration for the militant group. '
'Just because Iran has “lines of communication open with the Taliban, [it] doesn’t mean [they have] operational control,” said Alex Vatanka, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute in Washington. '
'On May 31, a suicide bomber targeted a U.S. convoy in eastern Kabul, killing four Afghan passersby and slightly wounding four U.S. servicemen and at least three civilians. '
'Pompeo “has a long list of grievances” against Iran, Vatanka said, and he needs to “convince people that this isn’t just a long list of events happening to coincide with the maximum-pressure campaign on Tehran."'
