Ok. Open question: Would Iran have invaded Iraq while Bush was President? What? You didn’t know that Iran invaded?
Did anyone know about this? I never heard of it.
How far did our image of strength have to drop to allow this fiasco?
Dec. 18 (Bloomberg/) — Iranian forces yesterday entered Iraqi territory at dawn and occupied a well in the East Maysan oil field, Border Guard General Zafer Nazmi said.
The Iranian forces positioned tanks around well number 4, which is in the al-Fakah region, 450 kilometers (280 miles) south of Baghdad. The two neighbors have disputed the border of southeast Iraq for decades.
“They positioned tanks around it and dug trenches,” Nazmi said by phone from Basra. “They are still there, they raised the flag.”
