Iran Press Service: Iran helped bin Laden escape American hunters.

German newspaper Die Welt is claiming that, in a twist seemingly straight out of a James Bond movie, bin Laden escaped Afghanistan, using support from Imad Mughnyeh, the head of the intelligence services of the Iranian-backed Lebanese Hezbollah. Mughnyeh, unrecognizable due to having undergone plastic surgery, has also taken over command of Al-Qaeda.
