#1 "When are we going to wake up and respond to Iran as they continue to provide gas-enhanced technology for the latest IED's?"

#2 The responsability for paying attention to who made the IED's and what to do about it falls flat on our Civ leadership. Every soldier knows where the IEDs are from. Most soldiers would love to see the JDAMS heading to Iran. The waking up that needs to happen is in the halls of congress.
