#2 Smart. Real smart. Didn't this kind of thing happen not too long ago in a land not too far away?

Which side of the border were they on? Was their location disputed? Kidnapped? What was the "reason" Iran felt the need to kidnap some Iraqis? Why did the Americans decide not to get involved? Seems that since Americans didn't get kidnapped or involved, the only purpose this little exercise served was to show Iran's true colors. Again. For those who needed any prior lessons repeated.

So much for the "good neighbor" thingy.

#3 This could be the excuse Bush needs to hand the mad mullahs their nether parts in a plastic bag. November is too far away - whack 'em now.
