The insanity behind the call for the Iranian Army to be branded terrorists...
First of all, the Iranian government and I would suppose the military as well, is a Shi'ite based organization...

People forget that Iran assisted the US in the beginning of the war in Afghanistan because, well, the Taliban is a radical SUNNI Organization...

So here is the Administration talking about how the Revolutionary Guard is basically, according to our "free" press, arming and assisting every single Shi'ite militant group operating in Iraq...

Now we know also from our "free" and very meticulous press that the Sunni Insurgency is all being fuel by some ubiquitous group called Al-Qaida in Iraq, probably a franchise operation like Mikey D's or Wendy's...

To the East, Iran is fueling Shi'ite insurance in Iraq while on their western Border, they are aiding and abetting the radical Sunni Taliban in Afganistan...

Now we all know that the word Byzantine really fits the middle east, but how can Iran be funding and sponsoring Shiites that are fighting Sunni's with supposed ties to the Taliban in Iraq while aiding the very same Sunni Taliban who are aligned with the Sunni's fighting Shi'ite in Iraq...

Oy Vey...

The bull shit Condi and company get away with is astonishing...

6. Although I just listened to Michael Ware on CNN...
He's about the best guy over there...

He brought up exactly what I brought up...

But he said Iran is funding and suppling a whole lot of rebels in the South...

He said that The brits have all but given up on the South and that the whole area down there is completely in control of radical Shi'ites aligned with Iran...

But then again, the Iranians are just doing what we did...

And that doesn't make them terrorists...

That makes them enemy combatants...

It's like if the US designates someone or some group a terrorist organization, they are automatically linked to 9/11...
