Well, SURPRISE SURPISE!
Ping! Good read.
Iran/Iraq War The Sequel coming up.
An Act of War! On to Tehran!
Sounds like an act of war to me. And we should have a betting pool as to where this runs in the NY Times. I'll take Page A14, below the fold, buried in an article about another subject in Iraq.
When captured, they said, "Allahu akhbar! Kerry in '04!"
This strategery is getting good. Can anyone imagine any democrat who would have the foresight to pull this operation off? Too many ego's.
I've been waiting 25 years for us to deliver a royal ass-kicking to Iran. The day can't come soon enough as far as I'm concerned.
They identified themselves as Iranian intelligence officers? Why would they do this?
I'd counsel against either course. Iraqis have no love for Iran. More incidents like this and you'll see the Iranian mullahs worried about sparking off a second Iraq/Iran war, with one side newly united under an actual reason to fight and the other side fractioned with dissent against a tolitarian government.
We didn't sweep though to Baghdad because Iraqis are cowards or ineffective fighters. We did so because they correctly determined that they had nothing to fight for. Iran may change that ....
There it is......Iranian sappers...working under orders of their govt....this is an attack on a free Iraq by Iran...
Go get em....or let Israel take em out...regardless...Iran has to go...
imo
Its nice to see that FOX finally got around to putting the story into print. I first caught wind of it on the Hugh Hewitt show yesterday but couldn't really post anything lacking a source.
Ah, they are probably going to test negative for Iranian intelligence, and the Pentagon denial will shortly follow.
The GWB doctrine intends to destroy the infrastructure that support terrorism (Syria, Iraq, Iran and Saudi Arabia). Iraq was the geographical key because control of this country allows US to separate the remaining three and establish a base to attack either one of them. Control of Iraq and fomenting Iraqi anger against Iran and Syris will allow the Iraqi government to unite their nation and build a ground army to fight either one. Our airpower and SOF teams with Iraqi troops can defeat the armies of Iran. This may weaken the Tehran government so the people and students can overthrow it in the streets. Once Iran falls, a major paymaster for terrorists is gone, leaving Syria severely isolated. Either Assad submits like Libya or face destruction. If all these objects are achieved, the terrorists will be badly weakened and the Saudis can not sit on the fence. She must go after the terrorist support structure in their country or the US/Iran and Iraq will do it for them. I think after Iraq there are more wars and battles to come. If we are successful, GWB will change the landscape of the Middle East.
