B’Man: Isn’t it amazing that our enemy is making defensive arrangements with our new ally state? Does that mean that the Iranians can work with the US in the new 58 longterm bases Bush wants in Iraq? We can build them, then the Iranians can work with the Iraqis in them when we finally leave after $TRILLIONS spent.
