Baghdad, Nov. 13 - Ten Iranian agents were arrested during a raid on a local mosque in Falluja following attacks by coalition forces. News of the arrests came at a press conference by the heads of the multinational and Iraqi forces in Falluja.

The latest arrests follow a string of reports blaming Iran’s religious regime of backing insurgencies in an attempt to halt the democratic process in Iraq.

The head of security in Soleimaniya (northern Iraq), Brigadier General Sarkout Hassan Jalal, said earlier this week, “Paramilitary forces secretly bring fresh forces from Iran into Iraq, and then take them to Falluja and other places.”

The Al-Sabah daily wrote on Nov. 8, “Iraqi National Guard forces arrested eight Iranians as they were blowing up food storages and other centers in Kut. After preliminary interrogations of those arrested, it became clear that they were blowing up a storage room where election ballots were stored. Voters will receive one of these cards to participate in the upcoming elections by showing their birth certificate.”

Last week, Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi urged the European Union to use its influence over Iran to stop them from "fuelling violence" in his country. Iraqi President Ghazi al-Yawar also accused Iran of orchestrating attacks in Iraq. "Iran is playing a negative role in Iraq. It is behind the assassination of more than 18 Iraqi intelligence officers. It is also playing a negative role in southern Iraq," Yawar told Kuwait's Al-Qabas newspaper

:evilgrin:

[scarletwoman]

7. Or do they work for Chalabi?

That would make them D.O.D., not CIA. ;-)

[ilovenicepeople]

51. They found them hiding right behind SATAN

I don't believe anything coming out of Iraq anymore,why should I?

[scarletwoman]

55. Yeah -- there IS that...

Actually, I don't believe anything coming out of Iraq anymore either. Satan, indeed... (good one)

2. I can believe it

The war in Iraq is magnet for every regime int ehregion. i have to be honest, this is only a symptom of the larger battle to come. Imagine a war with Iran?

[barb162]

20. too bad for * all of the military is already busy elsewhere, huh?

[still_one]

3. Interesting since falluja is mostly Suni, and the Shia don't get along

with Suni

[LynnTheDem]

14. Sunni helped the Shia in Najaf, & Shia are now helping Sunni in Falluja

The fighters in Fallujah believed to be mostly Sunni have won backing from Shia leaders who fought U.S. forces in Najaf earlier.

http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/1111-06.htm

The "a civil war will break out between Sunni & Shia if we leave" is just BUSHIT.

35. Dubya is a uniter, not a divider.

[Charles19]

50. Thats why Bin Laden is sitting with his head Noddin

Bush is bringing all the forces together just like he wants. There is a very specific reason you aren't seeing a lot of videos with Laden complaining lately. He has nothing to complain about!

Islamic fundamentalist army where they are free to do what they want.

[htuttle]

4. And away we go...

[FatSlob]

5. No surprise there. Iran is a known enemy.

we should seal the iraq/iran border and shoot on sight anybody who tries to cross it. the Iranian agents should be summarily executed as spies. Perhaps a missile or two might deter the Iranians in the future.

[Goathead]

9. Uhhh... what?

Don't you mean the Iraqis should seal the border? they are after all a "sovreign nation" now. Remember that little ceremony where Bremer handed over control of the country then split on the next plane out? After all, we weren't able to proceed in Fallujah with out the Iraqis go ahead... yeah right!

[FatSlob]

10. semantics. Us and our Iraqi allies.

[Goathead]

12. Sorry hoss

You had it right the first time. There is no such thing as Iraqi sovereignty.

[FatSlob]

26. Hopefully there will be soon.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

33. Riiiiggghhhhttt. Sure. You bet.

[FatSlob]

40. Note the "hopefully"

[Chimpanzee]

16. That's 'sawvren nayshun' n/t

[lynx rufus]

18. Iran is not a known enemy of the US!

Try reading a little more.
How can you post here every day and believe Iran is
a known enemy?

[NNN0LHI]

23. Chimpy said they were part of the axis of evil? And Chimpy don't lie

And Israel don't like Iran either. Ain't that good enough for you? Why do you hate America? I am being sarcastic.

Don

[FatSlob]

27. In my opinion, they are an enemy.

Look at their behaviour towards us over the years.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

31. Look at our behavior toward Iran over the years! How many years...

...do you want to go back in time?

How about when we helped overthrow the rightful government of Iran and installed the Shah? Remember that? Sound familiar?

[NNN0LHI]

36. Let me try. Its like this. They got oil. They won't let us steal it

So, they must be the enemy. Thats just the way it works for some folks.

Don

[FatSlob]

41. so? what do past wrongs have to do with it.

Just because something happened some time ago doesn't mean that we should not go after them now.

[getoffmytrain]

44. Ummm

we make threats back and forth weekly about blowing one another up... I don't think I would call the relationship between Iran and the USofA friendly, would you?

[Cyrix]

24. Wow

"the Iranian agents should be summarily executed as spies"

War crimes sure are fun huh?

You should send your resume to Rummy. He could use someone like you.

[FatSlob]

28. It is in the Geneva Conventions.

Spies can be summarily executed. They surely fit into that category. What would you do with them?

[Media_Lies_Daily]

32. We don't abide by the Geneva Convention...or didn't you know that?

[FatSlob]

39. then we can summarily execute them anyway.

either way, it is fine, and I would support executing them.

[seraph]

43. Am I on the right board? n/t

[FatSlob]

45. war is war.

would you prefer that the Iranian agents help kill our Marines?

[seraph]

46. I would prefer our Marines not be there.

Nor do I believe we have the right to execute anyone.

[FatSlob]

47. Obviously, our Marines not being there is not an option.

In war, I fully believe that we have the option to summarily execute any spy. It is well established. to win, we must use the options available. the piece of shit Iranian spies should be stood up against a wall and face a firing squad, or the hangman's gallows. Yeah, maybe we shouldn't be there, but we are there, and we must use every means available to destroy the enemy and bring a democratic government to Iraq.

[seraph]

54. Sieg Heil, Mary. n/t

[Media_Lies_Daily]

30. Are you being facetious, or have you taken leave of your senses?

[FatSlob]

42. I'm serious. Their behaviour in Iraq proves it.

[pinkpops]

6. If Bush attacks Iran he is dumber than anyone imagined.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. The magnitude of Bush's dumbness is beyond imagining.

And therefore he's capable of anything. His dumbness is infinite.

[barb162]

22. there's not enough US military left to attack unless he drafts

and that will take months and months of training.

[ilovenicepeople]

53. Months and months of training?

"Do you play video games?","Yep!","Heres your weapon,heres your power tokens,Now GoGetEM!!" NEXT.....

[patdem]

11. Iran is Shia..what are they doing in the the Sunni region???

just asking?

[Zynx]

19. Making our lives difficult so we are kept busy.

[ithacan]

13. so it starts

the inevitable buildup to war with Iran.

They're going to pull all kinds of propaganda bullshit to convince Americans that Iran is an evil threat and must be invaded...

Remember the lies we heard before Iraq?

The lies before Iran are gonna make those earlier lies look like little white lies.

This is going to be a disaster.

[independentpiney]

37. I can see that coming

Keep putting the little blips in the media about Iranian spies or paramilitaries being captured in Iraq, then slowly build the stories to a crescendo of proven activities by the Iranian govt. Voila! The reason we can't stabilize Iraq is because of Iranian interference, sanctioned by their government. All Iran's fault- they must be invaded.

[Chimpanzee]

15. I'd say the draft is weeks, not months, away. n/t

[barb162]

21. let's hope it is filled with pug draftees then, can't think of any

people I would like to see in it more

[daleo]

[symbolman]

25. Don't forget

all bush and cronies do is sew chaos and live off the margins.. no matter where it is, here, Iraq, Iran, the market, whatever..

they've done the same in the biz world.. the company sinks while they walk away with all the money in their arms..

standard practice, they've honed to an artform, and of course the commom populace is so stupid, busy or propgandized to know this.

they are not dumb at all, they know exactly what they are doing.. they have set up a lemonade stand and are selling bloodfilled cups to the Armageddon troops..

[Media_Lies_Daily]

29. Riiiigggghhhttt. Sure. You bet.

[AmyCrat]

34. All I can say is here we go *roll eyes* n/t

[Briar]

38. Iranian exile publication, I suspect

Their aim is to destablise Iran.

[daleo]

48. That's what I think too n/t

n/t

[restorefreedom]

49. Here comes the set-up ...

a little earlier than I expected, though.

* hasn't destroyed enough lives in Fallujah yet to be talking Iran....

[meganmonkey]

56. Right. The guys they arrested are as Iranian as...

the 9/11 hijackers were Iraqi. They're as Iranian as a 10 year old girl killed by our bombs is an insurgent.
The set-up is starting. Anyone who thinks the administration wants to 'win a war' is fooling themselves. Iraq is just one very successful step in the never-ending-war-industry movement.

[mmonk]

52. They want to slow

the American military transformation of the middle east down.
