Honest! This time it's the truth! Really!

Even though we did not protect the weapons stashes all over Iraq when we first invaded and there was rampant looting, these are not those bombs! The bombs have Iranian writing all over them. See the little sticker? Even though we fired all the translators, we can tell it says "Death to America! Love, Iran" on the sides!

We need to attack Iran! Just a bit...c'mon, that's why we started this war in the first place!

That isn't what Gates actually said, but almost:

MUNICH, Germany (AP) - Serial numbers and other markings on bombs suggest that Iranians are linked to deadly explosives used by Iraqi militants, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Friday in some of the administration's first public assertions on evidence the military has collected.

While the Bush administration and military officials have repeatedly said Iranians have been tied to terrorist bombings in Iraq, they have said little about evidence to bolster such claims, including any documents and other items collected in recent raids in Iraq.

The assertions have been met with skepticism by some lawmakers still fuming over intelligence reports used by the administration to propel the country to war with Iraq in 2003. Gates' comments came as a new Pentagon inspector general's report criticized prewar Defense Department assertions of al-Qaida connections to Iraq.

Gates told reporters Friday that markings on explosives provide "pretty good" evidence that Iranians are supplying either weapons or technology for Iraqi extremists.

Or maybe somebody else will go ahead and just attack Iran... (I have no idea if this is true or not, but sadly, I wouldn't put it past them.)

A recent strike by nuclear-armed Israeli Air Force fighter-bombers bound for targets in Iran was turned back after being intercepted by U.S. fighters over Iraq, this reporter has learned.

Two sources have independently confirmed the encounter, which took place on January 7, 2007. Though the first informant offered few details beyond an initial tip, a second source long-known by this reporter to have well-placed U.S. and “non-U.S.” military and government contacts provided specific information regarding the raid, which was aimed at the radical religious ayatollahs holding ultimate power in Iran.
