no such proof. Or did you skip the third paragraph in the story you sited:

"Iran has denied supplying Iraqis with armor-piercing munitions and U.S. officials say they cannot prove complicity on the part of the Tehran government."

Just because a rightwing nut says something does not make it true. I have an alternative, how about WE NOT BOMB IRAN!!!!

Like Saddam was supplying Al-Qaeda? First, the Iranians hate the Taliban.

Iran is Shi'ite. The Taliban are Sunnis. Don't under-estimate the differences between those two.

Not only are the Taliban Sunnis, but a they are a sect Sunnis that think anybody who disagrees with them is worthy of death. The Mullahs in Iran have a totally different vision of the Islamic Revolution that the Taliban's Jihad.

Not only that, when I look at Afghanistan on the map, I could see a lot of countries around it where arms might be smuggled in. I mean there's Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Pakistan.  All of these are Sunni countries.

Moreover, see the map below. If any of those countries supply arms to any of those warlords, any of those warlords could then supply the Taliban.  

You don't cite the evidence that Iran is doing this. I'm not saying there isn't any, but I think it should be held to more stringent standards of evidence than the bullshit that Saddam Hussein was helping Al-Qaeda and that he had WMD's. Hint: if they are the same people who "proved" Saddam was in league with al-Qaeda, you should probably drop them into the Taliban region.

The other problem is practical: how are we going to attack Iran? It isn't like Iraq. It has five times the population, a hard terrain, with demographics that will allow them to put a huge fighting force into the field. We don't have the soldiers. Air assault? Over that large an area?  Forget it!

Fighting them could only mean nuking them. That will be will be ruinous to us than to Iran.

NOTHING!!  Iran is doing nothing wrong.  Iraq was never a threat and the only country in the region WITHOUT terrorist ties.  Al-Qaeda officials never met with Sadaam personally.  There were no terrorist training camps found in Iraq.  If Israel blows up tomorrow it doesn't affect us at all.  So let's do nothing.

Carter did nothing and created the first Islamo-Fascist regime.  Clinton did nothing and let Al-Qaeda grow into a worldwide orginization that attacked American soil twice.  Let's follow that wonderful strategy.

BTW, I didn't say invade and occupy Iran.  We could just bomb the living shit out of them.  Like Clinton used to arbitrarily do (If we pretend it is Kosovo then it will be a wonderful thing).  Better yet, we should let our enemies do whatever the hell they want and we can be like Harry and Nancy and pretend like nothing is happening.  After all, the real threat is global warming.

HEH, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH DIVIDED DO NOTHING GOVERNMENT???

We have had 6 years of undivided GOP government.  The result is -- well you know what the result is.  You're right, the current division of power won't accomplish anything.  So fucking what?   Sounds good to me.   No idiot is going to attack Iran.  As to the immegration bill, it's quite ok with me if the GOP wants to kiss the latino vote goodby.  I could easily go on.

Who cares what Russ and Ann have to say.

This is an ideal situation for any intelligent conservative:  a government that can do nothing.

Viva la Stalemate!!!  Harry
