Have we gone insane?

Aug 29, 2007 00:40

The US version of events in Iraq generally claims that Iranians are up to no good. Yesterday some Iranians were arrested by US forces in Iraq at the Sheraton Ishtar Hotel. It turns out that these were electric company representatives working out a deal for Iraq to import power from Iran.

OMG OMG OMG Panic! Terrorists! Aaaaaaah! We're all going to die!!! Er... wait. Isn't it in everybody's interest that Iraq's power grid stabilizes?

So now that Iran has made a small concession and allowed international inspectors in to some parts of their nuclear sites... the US is being more belligerent than ever. Why? This simply doesn't make any sense.

Cheers,
