C'mon baby let the good time roll...
Mmm, perhaps it's phase II and a half?
Actually I can well imagine Iran doing this, letting these exiled Iraqi shiites loose in Iraq. They're Iraqis, and it will be almost impossible for the Allies to differentiate between them and the majority of other Iraqis. The Iranians have no interest in making things easy for the Allies given the whole "Axis of evil thing". Stirring the sh1t in a way that doesn't really involve them directly would probably suite them very well. I don't think the US could fight Iran right now as well as fighting Iraq. The Iranian army is intact and is also very large. It would be a huge fight.
I think Donald Rum**** is waiting for a more appropraite date before attacking Iran.
