Iran at War

It's in red atop Drudge . It says that the Brits know that the Iranian Revolutionary Guards transported troops across the Iraq border in helicopters, in order to attack British soldiers. Some might call it an act of war. But then, there have been so many, who can keep track?

I doubt the Brits have the stomach for an effective response. Obviously the mullahs feel that way, too. But there are so many factors in play in Tehran these days that it probably requires a supercomputer to sort them out, from the succession struggle to the increasingly open war in the streets between regime and people, to the urgency the mullahs feel about the multi-front war in which they are now engaged.

I don't want to distract anyone from counting likely votes in the world's greatest deliberative body, but Iran certainly seems to be waging war openly and violently. It might be smart to pay attention. And even respond.
