US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld accused Iran of sending Iranian Revolutionary Guard forces into Iraq, and warned Tehran it was “an error in judgement.”

“They are currently putting people into Iraq to do things that are harmful to the future of Iraq, and we know it, and it is something that they will look back on as having been an error in judgement,” he told reporters here.

Pressed to elaborate, Rumsfeld said the Iranians were putting “Quds force-type people,” or Iranian Revolutionary Guard forces, into Iraq.

“I don’t think we could consider them religious pilgrims,” Rumsfeld said.

And why would Iran do this?

Let me think………
