Our New Foreign Policy: Blame Iran

I don't believe a word this administration says about Iran. We hear the Iranians are just moments away from flipping the switch on a nuclear weapons program. Then a national intelligence estimate discredits that theory. We hear they are funneling arms to the Iraqi insurgency and "special groups" (by the way, can we please go back to calling them militias? "Special groups" sounds like Pentagon-speak). Yet, as Time magazine recently reported, "the U.S. allegations appear to be based on speculation, spurred by the appearance about a year ago of a new breed of roadside bomb in Iraq." We hear they are arming the Taliban, their longtime nemesis, in Afghanistan, with the interest of destabilizing that country. Again, on this latest charge, be very skeptical.
