#1 So has anyone noticed the recent upsurge in Iranian "FOAD"s? Seem like they'd really like a tussle right about now: Agents in Iraq, border incursions in Iraq, the Brit boat heist and now the moot court stuff with Canada.

- you don't suppose they read the news reports about how over-extended the US military is , do you? and I wonder what kind of a deal they have cooked up with their little playmate, "Kimmie, the Wonder Wart"? We'll get their attention, then when they move those troops out of SK, you kick 'em.

#2 I'm not sure that the death of a Canadian journalist would be newsworthy in Iran to begin with. Many of their own journalists are behind bars already. I can't remember whether Castro has more journalists in prison or whether Iran is the world leader in press suppression.
