Iraq War Watch: Iranian Weapons Arming Iraqi Shia Militias
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (L) shakes hands with his Iraqi counterpart Jalal Talabani after reviewing the honour guard in Tehran, November 27. Ahmadinejad has called on American forces to leave Iraq as Talabani wrapped up a three-day visit to neighbouring Iran.
ABC News (Via Hot Air): Iranian Weapons Arm Iraqi Militia
Hezbollah Training Also Linked to Iraq Violence
U.S. officials say they have found smoking-gun evidence of Iranian support for terrorists in Iraq: brand-new weapons fresh from Iranian factories. According to a senior defense official, coalition forces have recently seized Iranian-made weapons and munitions that bear manufacturing dates in 2006.
This suggests, say the sources, that the material is going directly from Iranian factories to Shia militias, rather than taking a roundabout path through the black market. “There is no way this could be done without (Iranian) government approval,” says a senior official.
What a surprise?
NOT
And when President Ahmadinejad says he wants to help Iraq, is this what he means?
Come on…..Iran wishes to be the Middle East Hegemon.

There’s no doubt that the USA sold weapons to Iran thanks to Ronald Reagan and cretins like Oliver North (the illegal Iran-Contra Scandal), and, as far as you know we may be selling them still, so just who is the terrorist here?
Flap
And those weapons sold in the 1980’s were used against American soldiers and the Iraqi Sunnis twenty-five years later?
Nope…….
Iran is giving modern day weapons to the Shias to promote sectarian violence and directly kill Americans.
Hummm not the same.
Unless you have some conspiracy theory that has Oliver North selling weapons to Ahmadinejad in 1981???
