Amen.
Nice to see someone come out on the side of the troops.
Well I guess Iran is not as silent in the Islamic world as they seem to be in our press.

Tehran, March 26, IRNA -- Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov and his
Iranian counterpart Kamal Kharrazi on Wednesday held telephone
conversations in which the two warned against an unfolding
'humanitarian tragedy' in Iraq as a result of the US-led invasion.
"The signs of humanitarian tragedy are emerging," Kharrazi said.
Ivanov said 'Moscow's views conform with those of Tehran and the
(Persian Gulf) region now is on the brink of a humanitarian and
ecological disaster and America must accept responsibility for (the
unfolding tragedy in) the occupied regions'.
The Iranian minister also expressed concern over the 'massive
invasion' launched by the coalition forces, saying 'American troops
may resort to every possible means since it is very embarrassing for
them to see they are halted (by the Iraqi resistance)'.
"The Security Council must effectively intervene to prevent the
continuation of this unequal war," Kharrazi said.
"Najaf and Basra (in southern Iraq) are under the fire of the
aggressors and attacks on Iraqi citizens have caused heavy losses and
must be immediately halted," he added.
Ivanov said 'it is important to work with the media and present
accurate information (about the ongoing war) in order to enlighten the
world public opinion about the truth so that the invading forces
cannot go ahead with their aggression through blackouts'.
Both Iran and Russia are staunchly opposed to the US-led war.
The Islamic Republic has strongly condemned the invasion but the
country which fought an imposed war between 1980 and 1988 with Iraq --
then a close American ally -- has taken a position of 'active
neutrality' and reiterated that it will not back one side or another
in the US-led war.
