let's get it on
In this story, the AJC reports that the Iraqi police are taking a lot of casualties -- which we all knew. What I find interesting is this little statement by Rummy:
``We know that Iran has harbored al-Qaida,'' he said, referring to senior operatives who crossed into Iran from Afghanistan more than a year ago, many of whom the Iranians said they captured and deported. ``We know they've had people moving across the border. They're certainly aware of that; they have border patrols. We know that Syria has been a hospitable place for escaping Iraqis.''
According to Bush's preemptive doctrine, let's go-go. Load 'em up boys. As the neocons said in the weeks after Bagdad fell and rose petals were strewn in front of Americans' feet, "Anybody can take out Iraq, real men go to Tehran." And that's the rest of the story.
