Robert Gates has Tehran on his mind:
Serial numbers and markings on explosives used in Iraq provide "pretty good" evidence that Iran is providing either weapons or technology for militants there, Defense Secretary Robert Gates asserted Friday.
Offering some of the first public details of evidence the military has collected, Gates said, "I think there's some serial numbers, there may be some markings on some of the projectile fragments that we found," that point to Iran.
There's a smoking gun for you.
Do you want to wait until we think there are serial numbers and markings in downtown Manhattan? Do you want to take that risk!?
He also says that we've "picked up" some Iranians in raids in Iraq. What more do you need to hear, folks? How can the world community stand still for Iran's unspeakable business — interfering with the sovereign state of Iraq?

Clearly Unqualified to Lead
Gates say "I think there’s some serial numbers, there may be some markings on some of the projectile fragments that we found"? He doesn't know? He's not offering proof?
If he doesn't know, he's either lying or he doesn't know what he's talking about. It's not like he's answering a surprise question. If there is any "information," he has access to it. We don't.
No one but a fool goes to war behind this. After Iraq, how many fools are left?
How many fools
All they need are two (not counting Laura and Barney), but the polls seem to indicate that about 32% of us fall in that category.

With all the weaponry that the Pentagon has sold to countries that supply weapons to Iran, it's pro'ly just as true that we have equal evidence our "insurgents" have a supplier from the U.S.
