Like, wow, man! Harshed somebody's mellow, din't they?
BASRA: Iraqi security forces seized four tonnes of hashish being smuggled into the country from Iran, officials in Basra said on Wednesday. They said six people had been arrested in the operation to seize the drugs, found in a large truck east of Basra, Iraq's second city, 550 km (340 miles) southeast of Baghdad. Iraq's government has accused neighbouring countries including Iran of failing to do enough to stop insurgents, drugs and weapons crossing the country's porous borders.

#3  Four tons? That would have been enough to fuel Tater's "insurgency" for, I dunno, at least a week or two.
