When the Bush administration were gearing up to invade Iraq, they claimed that Iraq was so technologically advanced that they had nuclear, chemical and biological weapons that could be launched in 45 minutes and could hit the US or its allies.
NOW they're claiming that Iraq is so technologically backwards that they have to be supplied by Iran with roadside bombs made from a morter shell, a detonator and a garage remote control or an alarm clock wired together. That is what these "new" and scary EEPs are. The same type of bombs have been used by ETA in Spain, the IRA in Ireland, in Columbia, Chechnya... the list is rather long. Come off it. My 96 year old gran could probably cobble one together with no help from Iran, Syria or the bogeyman.
Besides, the majority of Iraqi insurgents are Sunnis. Iran is run by Shias. Sunnis and Shias don't like each other. Why would Iran be helping Sunni insurgents to fight against an Iraqi Government that is largely made up of Shias? You'd have to be pretty dim to believe this nonsense coming out to the White House at the moment.

I think you mean:
Does the US have evidence that IRAN is supplying weapons to Iraqis involved in their Civil War?

Yes, the Us is supplying the Iraqi Army with weapons and equipment to try and secure the country. What's new?

Look,genius...THERE IS NO CIVIL WAR...that was invented by American liberal MURDERERS like Ted "the swimmer" Kennedy.The simple fact is there are 10 times as many Sunnis as there are Shei,so IF it was a civil war,it would be over in about 14 minutes...USE YER BRAIN,BOY !!! By the way...I have been there,so I know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.IRANIANS are bombing mosques to try to START a civil war,and the FOOLS in the liberal media eat it up like the lap dogs they are !!!!!!!

what? you mean Iran is having a CIvil War? but i thought everyone loved their president? he's such a nice, lovable sort, after all.
seriously, why don't you go move to Iran and ask their leaders this question? since you apparently already sympathize with them, you'll fit right in. it'll give you a chance to fight some US troops when that fighting starts. then you can put your money where your mouth is.

Oh Christ! Another whining liberal bed-wetting leftist who seems to think that the past is an easy way to excuse the present! Did you forget the Ayatollah Khomeni kidnapping 100+ American hostages before any of that might have happened. Go back to school and learn something this time around
