Meanwhile, Assistant Secretary of State Martin Indyk told Congress last month that while there is “information about the involvement of some Iranian officials” in the Khobar bombing, none of it would hold up in court. But an official with access to the material says, “We have hard evidence on the Iranian government’s role.” CIA sources say terrorists received money and passports from Iran and that Iranian agents were casing American facilities in 1995. Despite the evidence, lawmakers are concerned that Iran will go unpunished. “My big fear,” says Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback, “is we won’t pursue it because of some rapprochement with Iran.”
