Hey, you! Don't look so perplexed. Why must you be vexed? Can't you see you're next? Yes, you're next, you're so next!

It's so very helpful of the Iranians to provide the Iraqi Shia insurgency with bombs factory stamped "MADE IN IRAN." It would've been difficult to gin up support for a war if they hadn't been so mind-numbingly stupid.

Those in the administration that want war with Iran couldn't have done a better job with the evidence for justification if they'd created it themselves.

Ahem.

Juan Cole has a pretty good run-down on why this is all a form of theater.

Besides, does Iran have any less right to sell arms or travel in Iraq than we do? Not to my knowledge.

Perhaps you're not familiar with the old Bush family slogan "Only we may meddle in the affairs of sovereign states."

I dunno, they didn't hid their involvement/support from Saddam Hussein; Why would they hide it from us?

I have to say though that France pointing the finger at Iran for it's "peaceful" nuclear energy program is a little like the pot calling the kettle black-France is one of the most nuclear dependant nations on earth. Precisely because they have no resources, and don't want to be dependant on foreign oil.

Hence the nuke tests in the South Pacific, which the Kiwi's get their panties in a twist about....and why the French blew up the Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior in Auckland Harbour when it was tied up at the Marsden Wharf.

Yes, hate the French for the correct reasons not for the "right" reasons.

Yep. They don't have a hairy, crescent crumb covered leg to stand on.
