NBC NEWS confirms a secret U.S. military report that says 'Iranian Agents' may be behind a deadly ambush in Karbala, Iraq that left five American soldiers dead. The report also claims the Iranian revolutionary guard is providing intelligence on U.S. and Iraqi military to Shiite extremists, in addition to sophisticated weaponry.

Interesting? It is going to be downright scary. The Democrats are going to handcuff our President and the military and Iran is going to run roughshod over us with the Democrats blaming Republicans and Bush for it all. The general public is too stupid to research truths and the MSM is going to go with the Democrats. The "Fairness Doctrine" is going to be passed into law and any information other than the MSM will be suppressed. Severe gun control will be enacted. Our children will be in madrassas before its over. I am a realist. I will be gone by the time this happens because the Muzzies will have killed me.

I was getting attacked by some people for claiming the Karbala attack had all the finger prints of Iran all over it and not Sunni insurgents.

We can stop anything in the Senate just like the Rats did to us.

The bad stuff you fear will be passed, won't.

But it will be two years of inaction, probably long enough for the Iranians to have the capability to make a launch at Tel Aviv.

Yes, interesting is an understatement.

So who leaked the so called secret information. Frigen leakers. What would the L/MSM do without people that can't keep their big mouths shut. Meanwhile, the administration has put a lid on what it supposedly was going to present to the world involving Iranian influences in Iraq.

I'm happy to see the media is finally acknowleging Iran as the major backer of terrorism. Unfortunately with our current Congress and the public sentiment on foreign policy it will be hard to make the case.

He's alluding to a developing NBC story; we shall see. I would not be surprised. They've been deep in terrorism for a long time and far away from Iran (Argentina comes to mind). Iranians, Iraqis, Lebanese, Israelis, Palestinians, Americans, and many other nationalities are victimized by Iranian terrorists. And, as we face this evil, the Congress is going to do its best to assure Iran wins in Iraq.

In fairness, NBC is revealing this. They are the MSM. But let me add I share your disdain for them. However, if they get something right then we should not ignore it.

"I hope it is warmer back home in Big Orange Country than it is here in Illinois tonight!"

Nope, it's cold here, by Tennessee standards. Been down in the teens, with a wind chill of plus three (night before last).

I am sitting atop an elevated ridge in Campbell County, very near Norris Lake. The weatherman said 2- to 4 inches of snow tomorrow night, then freezing rain following that. Four to eight inches are predicted for the Smokies, so it'll be a beautiful sight tomorrow from my front deck.

I went to town today (Jacksboro) to get everything I need, and have a 4-wheel drive if I need to get out.

Pretty unusual weather for here, as you know. However, I am sure it's much worse in Illinois.

Tennessee Volunteers travel to Illinois in droves for the deer hunting up your way. I am just happy to be right here atop a Tennessee ridge.

You stay warm too. Can't wait for spring here in east Tennessee.

One poster who seemed to have a problem believing our enemies in Iraq are both Shia and Sunni.

It wouldn't be the first poster. It is a very minority opinion today, but one to two years ago there were alot more people who believed that if we just dealt with the Sunni insurgents the Iranian problem in Iraq and the problem with the Medhi Army would go away on their own.
