• One bomb (EFP) is similar to what U.S. says Iran provides militants in Iraq • U.S. official says U.S. believes Iran's supreme leaders know about operations • Iranian official at United Nations denies Iran is giving weapons to Taliban
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Weapons crossing the border from Iran to Afghanistan may be winding up in the hands of the Taliban, the hard-line Islamic militia that is battling U.S.- and NATO-led forces in Afghanistan, U.S. and British officials said.
Coalition officials in Afghanistan said they have intercepted Iranian-made AK-47s, C-4 plastic explosives and mortars. One explosively-formed penetrator bomb (EFP) that was found can pierce American armor, a NATO official said.

What a surprise!
Unfortunately, part of the blame is mine. In my early 20's, I actually went insane for a few years and voted for this guy. It was the reaction to Nixon. I'd like to have that vote back.
Well, you have repented for your sins by being in FR and for all the damn funny music parodies. I ahve my own political sin: when I was old enough to vote, I did pull the lever for...Ross Perot. My own stupid fault - mea culpa.

It was Plains where he was born
For that president, I have such scorn
He had damaged us but good
That should not be misunderstood
They've commisioned a new sub
Who decided that had really flubbed
It is more than just absurd
From our enemies, we have heard ---
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
This thing should make your blood boil
It is powered by peanut oil
What poor sap would join that crew
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
(brief musical break)
Who got stuck in that command?
A short straw was drawn by that poor man
Can you just imagine that
"Jimmy Carter" is on his hat
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
We're not scared of the Carter submarine, Carter submarine, Carter submarine
It is a Fluffernutter Class boat.
