They are the ones who have the sway in Iraq, not us or the Iraqi government. How long will we allow conservative pigheadedness to dictate our foreign policy?

Perhaps if we had some sort of diplomatic arm of the government who could talk to them about it….
Hmmm…so Iran really is heavily involved in Iraq?
the Cons think nothing of spending another couple trillion over there to prove they’re “tough” to their base of enlistmentphobes on talk radio and the rightie blogs
Scratch, do you want to explain that comment? Flesh it out a bit?
I know what scratch is going for.
And surely the only way to keep Iran from taking over Iraq is to…invade them!
What a backfire Scratch. Instead of planting an army in Iraq to dominate the region, we have torn ours up while letting Iran dominate the region. If we keep the army there, we are just letting Iran gain even more power while dwindling our own resources. Thanks for the FUBAR Bush & company.
“Hmmm…so Iran really is heavily involved in Iraq?”
Yes. They are helping the Iraqi government secure peace. But they are not training suicide bombers.
(Granted, they are doing so so they can have a strong ally in the region. It is not altruistic.)
I find it amazing that that some conservatives can look at evidence that proves them wrong and go, “Aha! I knew I was right!”
What about the equipment we find that is built in Iran?
“What about the equipment we find that is built in Iran?”
Give me a link with details.
Scratch, rather than throwing out online questions, why don’t you try to actually explain your understanding of Iran’s role in Iraq and its relationship with the major players. Can you do that?
No.
Dang it. That was ‘no’ to C.S., not to Fafaroo.
oh that should be “one line questions”
“What about the equipment we find that is built in Iran?”
Oh like those shaped IED things that could not possibly be made by the Iraqis (who happened to have a bunch in a machine shop), that are labeled with Western style (AD) dates (which is not the calendar that Iran uses)? Those “defninitely made in Iran” things?
Scratch: What about the equipment we find that is built in Iran?
CSS: Give me a link with details.
Scratch: No.
Scratch, why in the world should anyone attempt to answer your questions if you won’t participate in the effort?
Iran doesn’t have to supply Iraqi insurgents. The US does just fine dumping equipment left and right all over the place. The Iraqi generals are happy to sell off their US provided equipment as fast as they get it. Not to mention all the unsecured ammo dumps we left open from the Hussein era. Hell, last week there were several reports of Sadr militia men driving around in Humvees.
Scratch, do you want to explain that comment? Flesh it out a bit?
Don’t feed the trolls. I’m warning you.
What about the equipment we find that is built in Iran?
Finders keepers.
“Don’t feed the trolls. I’m warning you.”
I’m not all that concerned as I doubt scratch could explain what’s going in Iraq any better than anyone in the Bush administration can and since he knows it, he won’t even bother trying.
Yeah, I’m not taking that bet.
So the Iranians are in Iraq. Let them have the place! Go home! The place is a civil war. If the Iranians want the headache, let them. If they make something positive out of it, good for them!
Rather than being a reason to stay in Iraq, the Iranian presence is a reason to leave. Tehran has a better chance of making something worthwhile out of this mess than Washington does.
