#2 Perhaps a forward advance into Iran is in order?

#3 I agree Captain America. A Eastern shift would be nice, the Arabs down there don't like the Mullahs that much. Or North and East, help the Kurds in Northwest Iran.

#4 The proper diplomatic response would be for Iraq's FM to object to Iran "meddling in the internal affairs" of Iraq.

#5 The proper diplomatic response would be for Iraq's FM to call on Iran to pull its agents and weapons out of the southern Iraqi city of Basra, saying their presence was destabilizing the city.

#7 Iran's foreign minister called on Britain on Friday to pull its troops out of the southern Iraqi city of Basra, saying their presence was destabilizing the city.

WTF business is it of Iran's what goes on in Basra?

The minister also denounced what he said were human rights violations by the British forces in Basra.

Haaahahaahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahhahahhahaaa......er....*cough cough*

Sorry 'bout that.

#8 In the name of Mystical Mythical M.E. Stability, I see.

"Middle East Stability", you say? That rates right up there with one of my all time best oxymorons; Arab Unity.

#9 this fits with the Iranian complaints that British agents were fomenting unrest in the Arab areas of south-western Iran.

#11 Man, our Muslim friends get sooooooo pissed off when they finally realize that two can and will play at this game. I'll bet the infidel fighting back is a real no-no in the Koran.

#12 Wasn't it just a couple months ago that the U.K. leaked that they hard proof that some of the bomb-making equipment they were finding was of Iranian manufacture?

This isn't a surprising development, considering the release of the U.K. beatings video a couple days ago, though.
