Those Damn Iranians of Iraqi Origin Living In Iraq

Funny story about those explosively formed penetrators:

"Iraqi army soldiers swept into the city of Diwaniya early this morning to disrupt militia activity and return security and stability of the volatile city back to the government of Iraq," the U.S. military said in a statement.

Bleichwehl said troops, facing scattered resistance, discovered a factory that produced "explosively formed penetrators" (EFPs), a particularly deadly type of explosive that can destroy a main battle tank and several weapons caches.


I thought they all came from Iran. It simply can't be possible that the Bush Admnistration would stretch the truth to serve their political goals, right?

Of course, we'll see this spinned into how Iran just supplied the "technology and know-how" for the EFPs, which have been mostly used in Iraq by Sunnis, so somebody tell me why Shiites in Iran would be aiding Sunnis in Iraq who kill Shiites.

Meanwhile, another Iraqi-made weapon favored by insurgents, the chlorine bomb, killed 30 in Ramadi. We're doing an excellent job providing the training ground for the terrorists of the future.
