An Iranian arms shipment destined for the Taliban was intercepted on Sept. 6 by the international force in Afghanistan in what appears to be an escalating flow of weaponry between the two former enemies, according to officials from countries in the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force.

We are at war with Iran..the Democrats are just in denial.

The time is getting near for our troops to attack Iran.

Oh, no! That can't be! The mullahs are Shi'ites, and the Taliban is Sunni! It's only Democrats who don't want to bomb Iran's nuke facilities! Don't look at that article above this thread!

"Iran, a Shiite-dominated country, has long opposed the Taliban, a Sunni group with different ideas. Their cooperation is based on common opposition to foreign and particularly Western troops in Afghanistan, according to the United States and officials from other countries in the force."

Let's make sure that the readers see that.

If we have eyes on these shipments, we should have bombs on them. Why do we allow it when it is killing our troops? We have to act.

Last I checked, the talabin had something to do with 9-11. Iran is arming them, causing our soldiers to die.

The dems argue they are against the war because Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11 and was not killing Americans.

So by THEIR OWN REASONING the dems should be supporting a war on Iran.

"Iran, a Shiite-dominated country, has long opposed the Taliban, a Sunni group with different ideas. Their cooperation is based on common opposition to foreign and particularly Western troops in Afghanistan, according to the United States and officials from other countries in the force.

"They're playing with the enemy. They have no love lost for the Taliban. The Taliban killed several Iranian diplomats. We believe it's about hurting the Americans and the international community,"

What was that about the lefts claims that Saddam would never work with Al Quida because...
