Iran 'behind attacks on British'

[RogueTrooper]

Britain has accused Iran of responsibility for explosions which have killed eight British soldiers and injured two others in Iraq this year.

A senior British official, briefing correspondents in London, blamed Iranian Revolutionary Guards.

He said they provided the technology to a Shia group in southern Iraq.

Our world affairs correspondent says that while British officials have hinted at an Iranian link before, they have never been so specific.

1. Uh yeah but the Americans have: Hezbollah of Iraq

Big deal that the Brits are laying out the same accusations now. It may even be the truth.

Time to start the runup to the invasion of Iran!

4. The sane ones

Iranian meddling in the "liberated" Iraq was one of the predictions made by the anti-Iraq-War-Only crowd prior to hostilities commencing.

15. But why?

Iran wields a lot of influence with the new Iraqi government. Why stir up trouble?

16. Blair: Iran or Hezbollah Involved in Iraq

LONDON - Prime Minister Tony Blair said Thursday that new explosive devices used against coalition forces in Iraq "lead us either to Iranian elements or to Hezbollah."

"We cannot be sure," Blair told a news conference, but "there are certain pieces of information that lead us back to Iran."

On Wednesday, Press Association reported that a senior government official said Britain believed Iran's Revolutionary Guard was supplying explosives technology to insurgents in Iraq that was being used against British soldiers there.
