U.S. military and intelligence officials tell NBC News ....

....U.S. military and intelligence officials tell NBC News that American soldiers intercepted a large shipment of high explosives, smuggled into northeastern Iraq from Iran only last week.

From the people who brought you "the WMD's are in Iraq" - The war drums for Iran begin to pound.

Funny how NBC News "learned" this bit of info from the Bush Administration. The same administration that sold the lies to Congress and the people of how serious a threat Iraq was to our survival.

When does NBC News ever find out anything on their own??

BTW, isn't NBC owned by GE? Isn't GE part of the Military-Industrial-Complex?

No conflict of interest there... No..No..No...

1. GE owed shrub for that new nuke bidness he greenlighted in India
which they stand to make a pretty penny off.
The quid pro quo was this propaganda burst, I guess.

2. "U.S. military and intelligence officials"
Aren't "U.S. military and intelligence officials" annonymous sources?? No one specifically is mentioned by name which leads me to believe this is a bullshit propaganda piece.
