Claims of Central Intelligence Agency ( CIA ) support were debunked by a subsequent investigation showing that the CIA " had barred even the most incidental contact with Jundallah . " The rumors originated in an Israeli Mossad " false flag " operation ; Mossad agents posing as CIA officers met with and recruited members of Jundullah in cities such as London to carry out attacks against Iran . President George W. Bush " went absolutely ballistic " when he learned of Israel 's actions , but the situation was not resolved until President Barack Obama 's administration " drastically scaled back joint U.S.-Israel intelligence programs targeting Iran " and ultimately designated Jundallah a terrorist organization in November 2010 . Although the CIA cut all ties with Jundallah after the 2007 Zahedan bombings , the Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) and United States Department of Defense continued to gather intelligence on Jundallah through assets cultivated by " FBI counterterrorism task force officer " Thomas McHale ; the CIA co-authorized a 2008 trip McHale made to meet his informants in Afghanistan . According to '' The New York Times '' : " Current and former officials say the American government never directed or approved any Jundallah operations . And they say there was never a case when the United States was told the timing and target of a terrorist attack yet took no action to prevent it . " '' Mashregh News '' , which has close ties to the IRGC , has accused Qatar for supporting both Jaish ul-Adl and Harakat Ansar Iran , alongside Saudi Arabia , Pakistan and Taliban . Harakat Ansar Iran has made an appeal on Saudi Arabian websites for funding
