TEHRAN, Iran - Iran on Monday rejected U.S. accusations that the highest levels of Iranian leadership have armed Shiite militants in Iraq with armor-piercing roadside bombs, a day after U.S. military officials in Baghdad said they had traced the weapons to Tehran.
Such accusations cannot be relied upon or be presented as evidence. The United States has a long history in fabricating evidence. Such charges are unacceptable, Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini told reporters.
The deadly and highly sophisticated weapons are known as explosively formed penetrators, or EFPs, which have killed more than 170 troops from the American-led coalition. Three senior military officials in Baghdad said the machining process used in the construction of the deadly bombs had been traced to Iran.

Every news story and headline is filled with buzz phrases such as "US is Pointing Fingers" and "Military Presents Alleged Evidence."
The DNC did its part, accusing the Bush Administration of "beating the war drums with lies again."
95% of the "reporters" in Iraq will not even leave the Green Zone to cover what is going on. Every news story they file is against the military and our nation.
Both the Media and the Democrats are traitors, and worse, they are complicit in the evil of our time. They are openly giving aid and comfort to Muslim terrorists, Iran, and Syria.
That S.O.B. is killing our troop's
To them, an enemy of America's word is good enough; for them, nothing Bush says is worth anything without piles of liberal-approved "evidence" backing it up.
Senator Christopher Dodd (D, CT) is quoted today as saying he believes the Bush administration is cooking this intelligence against Iran to back its case for war in Iraq.
Our own Senator Dodd has given Iran plausible deniability. Apparently the Iranian FM is receiving FAX's from the DNC because they quickly backed Dodd's assertions.
DESPICABLE PEOPLE.
Perhaps I am just confused, or missing something. Why have we not secured the border between iraq and iran? iraq and syria? what gives?

In order to completely and quickly destabilize the Iranian government, we should set up some roque Iraqis to print Iranian currency like crazy and distribute it to Iraqis, Afghanis, Pakistanis, Syrians, etc. Their economy would collapse from within and the Euroweenies could continue to stand on the sidelines and fret over economic sanctions.
And then on to Venezuela.
No thank you for your service Red6. I am very grateful for your sacrifice!
