“Petraeus: U.S. Troops in Iraq Likely To Blunt Iran’s Influence”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Washington (AP) - Army Gen. David Petraeus, who is to assume control of U.S. forces in the Middle East, says that a continued U.S. presence in Iraq is more likely to blunt, rather than inflame, Iran’s growing influence in the region.
In a 46-page question-and-answer document submitted in advance of his confirmation hearing on Thursday, Petraeus says the U.S. must work on developing more leverage _ primarily diplomatic or economic _ to pressure Tehran to abandon its nuclear program. But, he notes, the U.S. must retain military strike options as a “last resort.”
“A destabilized Iraq, rampant terrorism in the region and a nuclear-armed Middle East are not in any nation’s long-term interest, including Iran’s,” according to the document, obtained by The Associated Press.”

“Iranian Regime-Affiliated Websites and Their Hosts”
SNIPPET: “In 2007, MEMRI posted a number of reports listing Islamist websites, forums, and blogs hosted in the West that support warfare against Coalition forces in Iraq and/or feature jihadist incitement and propaganda. [1] This report lists Iranian websites (most also hosted in the West) which are affiliated with the Iranian regime and are used by it to disseminate its ideology.”
