Who is the source?
Quote:
The Long War Journal is dedicated to providing original and accurate reporting and analysis of the Long War (also known as the Global War on Terror).
So it is a propaganda machine for the poltiical agenda that sees enemies hiding everywhere.

That article includes some 'glossed over' facts.
Quote:
While several senior Iraqi officials and US military commanders have stated Iran has cooperated in reducing the flow of weapons and fighters into Iraq ...
Of course. And the Iranian government has repeatedly offered to coordinate their efforts with the US against these smugglers. The US has refused for political reasons. Something about not talking to our enemies - which even Reagan said is bogus.

Qods Force is no different than American suppliers to the IRA. That also proves Americans wanted to kill British soldiers? But if we admit this publication has the same political agenda as Urbane Guerrilla, then it must be credible? The majority of officers suggest the problem is not the Iranian government. The problem is Iraqi insurgents who have smuggling supply lines into Iran, Turkey, and elsewhere. The article forgets how many other countries are also sources for insurgent weapons - including Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the US. How many thousands of US weapons were distributed to 'unknowns' from even bases next door to US military facilities?

George Jr warned that Iran is building nuclear weapons to start WWIII knowing full well that the nuclear program was terminated in 2003. This article is for those who believe George Jr's mythical 'global war of terror' and also believed Saddam had WMDs. Review its quoted purpose is. There is no 'global terrorism network' except where the bogeyman also hides under everyone's bed. Weapons smugglers exist. So what? Americans also did that to British troops in Northern Ireland.
