Country: | US accuses Iran over Iraq bombs "The US military has accused the "highest levels" of Iran's government of supplying increasingly sophisticated roadside bombs to Iraqi insurgents...." BBC NEWS | Middle East | US accuses Iran over Iraq bombs
I have thought all along that Iran has been supplying the Insurgents with hardware (as perhaps is Syria). They were supplying Hezzbollah so I also think they are supplying the Iraqi's as well. That there is now evidence (at least from the US - no indepedant verification) is no surprise as they have probably being doing it all along. The Iranians are in Iraq just like the Americans and the Israeli's probably have some troops in Iran.

Country: | I dont think that has been any secret. The Iranians support the shiites in Iraq and wish to throw the country into more chaos than it allready is so that they can get there little hands mixed into the whole thing and influence it all.
**** them too!

Country: | no secret Iran/Iraq have had dealings with each other for years not just on the battlefront between each other. We have been watching them before 1980. also Syria has backed Hez ever since it's silly existance, and Syria has the small band of losers doing their bidding to take Lebanon complete under their control. one day Syria will have to squash this little group and just go in ......... then Israel will strike.
not sure why the statement had to go public except to gather more support |

Country: | We have known for years now that Iran has been supplying the insurgency. We had evidence back when I was there.
