I missed this story on Friday, but ran across it while perusing the blog of Kevin McCullogh at http://kevinmccullough.townhall.com/.
It is quite incredible that we have let the Iranians get away with indirectly killing Americans (and Iraqis) in Iraq for so long. I am very glad to read that we're going to start inflicting a cost on them for their behavior.

Combine this with the announcment by an Iranian legislator that Iran was installing 3,000 more centrifuges for enriching uranium, and I think we see a country that is getting closer and closer to being attacked in a very serious way by Israel with help of the United States.
The Iranian people are very smart, generally well-educated, and do not hate the US to any degree like what the media want us to believe. But their government does, and unless the people do something about that government's reckless drive toward nuclearization and confrontation with the Western world, the people will suffer serious collateral damage of the inevitable decapitation of the Iranian regime and their military facilities.
