U.S. officer: Iran sends Iraq bomb parts

BAGHDAD, Iraq - High-tech roadside bombs that have proved particularly deadly to American soldiers are manufactured in Iran and delivered to
Iraq on orders from the "highest levels" of the Iranian government, a senior intelligence officer said Sunday.

The officer, briefing reporters on condition he not be further identified, said that between June 2004 and last week, more than 170 Americans had been killed by the bombs, which the military calls "explosively formed projectiles."

This is it. The Bush/Cheney Death Junta is telling us there's gonna be another war. Of course, we're informed that the "highest levels" of Iranian government are responsible. Iraq is our sandbox, we went 1/3 of the way around the world to take it over. As of this morning, at least 3,121 American soldiers have died in Iraq, & it was George Bush - highest level of our government, not the Iranians, who got them killed. Keep a close eye on this story. It's just the first test of mainstream media's current level of credulousness peeping out from behind images of Anna Nicole Smith.

Iran has a legitimate interest in what happens in Iraq, for the same reasons the United States would be more than alarmed by a civil war or anti-American government in Mexico. It is to their advantage if Iraq is controled by Shiites, poses no military threat, & that the United States leave. Eventually, they will have their way. But Al Qaeda knows Iraq is a disaster for us. If we leave, they will be hunted down & mercilessly destroyed by an unrestrained Shiite-controlled army. It is to their advantage that we stay in Iraq, which is a disaster for us, so they can more conveniently bleed us of our soldiers, treasure, & international respect.
