Believe it or not, Iran is fueling the Iraqi resistance! This shouldn’t really come as a suprise to anyone who has been following the Middle East situation at all, but ABC News seems to have been in the dark about it somehow. They also say Hezbollah is training Sadr’s Mahdi army. ABC seems terribly suprised about that as well.
This shows some of the current thinking in Washington for what it really is — stupid. “Hey, I’ve got an idea! Let’s get Iran involved in talks to move towards solving the problems in Iraq! Nevermind that they’re currently making them worse — let’s get Syria to help too. Maybe that will induce Tehran, Damascus, Hezbollah, and militant Islam in general to suddenly switch sides and stop fighting against us!”
