"This is Iran trying to take credit for our success".
That's a strange way to look at the facts. I don't think killing your own operative gives Iran any credit other than as a ruthless bunch of murderers who had to get rid of one of their own.
It has been openly said everywhere that the Jordanians provided the info, so any credit would go to them if c redit were due elsewhere.
Believe me, if I thought any credit would accrue to Iran from what I posted, I would bite my tongue and shut up. So would Alan Peters.
To the contrary, Iran's treachery to one of their own has caused enormous negative reaction (except in the MSM) and has labeled them as self-serving, unreliable masters.
As for HAMAS, remember one of their prominent members was killed in the hotel bombing in Jordan carried out by Zarghawi.
The whole situation is in cubic, not linear form and a multiple number of swirls and eddies are mingling to cause what happened to happen.
What I think the Iranians miscalculated was that the information found with Zarghawi would unleash the torrent of arrest and destruction of insurgent forces that occurred.
I will give them credit for their idiotic miscalculation!!

Every couple of days there's another rumor as to who was or who were the tipsters whose info resulted in the slaying of the Zark.
It's beginning to remind me of Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Orient Express". Turned out that a whole group of suspects on the train took turns stabbing the victim to death in his cabin so a single murderer couldn't be pinpointed.
In the Zark case, so many informants have been named that no one will ever be able to finger the real rat.
(.....unless some little Middle East-type twerp shows up in a few months at the Monte Carlo Casino with $25 million bucks to play with. We could then make an educated guess or two).

With some 40,000 Iranian operatives in Iraq it's going to be hard not to hit one sooner or later. Specially as I imagine some of Zarghawi's supporters will now begin to target Iranians. many of whom stand out like sore thumbs.
Couldn't be happening to more deserving targets.

"06/18/06 Reuters: Gunmen kill 3 in Baquba Gunmen in a car shot dead three persons including two Iranians in Baquba, 65 km (40 miles) north of Baghdad, police said." It would be valuable to know if Al Qaeda was shooting at Iranian agents (or legitimate religious pilgrims) in Iraq, or if the Kurds were doing it, or if they were killed by Iraqi Sunni/Shi'a.

There is a problem with this piece - it refers to Iran as one of Zarqawi's sponsors. One of terrorism's sponsors, yes, but not Zarqawi's. He was trying to incite violence between al Qaeda and the baathists on the one hand and Shiite groups, whom the Iranians do support. The fact that they are both against the Iraqi government and its allies, does not mean they are allied to eachother.
