#1 I remain of the view that we made a huge mistake in allowing Iran to do this without paying an unbearable price. We don't get many opportunities to actually pull triggers on our enemies in that region. Allowing them to prosecute a mostly one-sided war for three decades is an inexcusable stain on our record.

#2 The Army has said EFP attacks declined late last year in apparent response to an Iranian pledge to Iraq's Shiite-led government that it would hold back the flow of weapons.

Ohand now that theres not as many of the vermin to operate the Rat lines might have something to do with it too.

#3 I agree, Verlaine. A cost has to be put on our enemies for their actions, and preferably on the decision-makers, not the poor foot soldiers implementing the policy.
