"Deadliest Bomb in Iraq Is Made by Iran, U.S. Says"

"Neither the foreign head of state (the Shah) nor the President nor Dr. Kissinger desired a victory for our clients (the Kurds). They merely hoped to ensure a level of hostilities high enough to sap the resources of the neighbouring state (Iraq). Even in the context of covert action, ours was a cynical enterprise."

Clearly not a matter easily comprehended by the average Josephine ...
... and clearly (to me) the *thinking and intent* behind the scenes has changed little, if at all, in the ensuing 35 years.
Iran as a "would be" ally of U.S. in the sense that Iran has funded arming of Shia through Muqtada al-Sadr in southern Iraq in order to "end violence in Iraq" ...
... which U.S. paints as contributing to violence in Iraq - while Sunnis in Baghdad, "allied" with U.S. in the sense that Sunnis are funded by Saudis (who provide generous presidential and congressional "pensions" in the form of unlimited legal funds, etc.), are fleeing for their lives to northern Iraq and becoming refugees in massive numbers outside Iraq ...
... at the same time evidence points to U.S. contractors as the ones who bombed Samarra's Askariya shrine, also known as the Golden Mosque - the "spark" said to have set off actual civil war in Iraq.
"Leaders" of Israel, Iran, Britain, and U.S. all have low approval ratings among their own peoples - all looking for any way to "consolidate" power.
Saudi "zaqat" has funded Sunnis in Iraq for many months, and that money has apparently purchased Strela, a Russian shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile, which is most likely the cause of so many helicopter crashes in recent days, except those shot down by Shia ?
So why would the Iraq Study Group, members of which accept Saudi money same as anyone else in their league, accuse Saudis of fueling violence in Iraq, for which Saudis vehemently deny "any organized terror finance, and we will not permit any such unorganized acts," according to Brig. Gen. Mansour al-Turki, a Saudi Interior Ministry spokesman ?
At the same time, U.S. planes prevent IAF from overflying Iran while U.S. apparently prepares to strike Iran itself.
If IED's have NOT come in from Iran, then where does anyone suppose they DO come from ?
The choices are simple: Saudi Arabia, Israel, or the United States
(sorry, but Mr. Blair is simply playing with himself, wholly mesmerized).
This whole affair now makes me think of the sort of television "show" where each new episode is written according to the responses of viewers.
Simply made up from "popular opinion" as it "unfolds" ...
Also reminds me what some other men have said:
"When I die...Iraq dies with me."
- essentially Saddam Hussein's final words
Though I have still not found the exact quote, Winston Churchill is reported to have said, near the end of his life, that his role in forming Iraq was the biggest mistake he made in his life.
That admission points to Churchill's act, which in turn points out the truth of Saddam's words.
Iraq existed because Churchill created Iraq; Saddam was the force which continued the existence of Iraq.
Iraq exists no longer; instead, the territory formerly occupied by Iraq is in transition
Being carved up, in front of the world ...
