British Find No Evidence Of Arms Traffic From Iran

(WaPo - Page A21)
Britain, whose forces have had responsibility for security in southeastern Iraq since the war began, has found nothing to support the Americans' contention that Iran is providing weapons and training in Iraq, several senior military officials said.

"I have not myself seen any evidence -- and I don't think any evidence exists -- of government-supported or instigated" armed support on Iran's part in Iraq, British Defense Secretary Des Browne said in an interview in Baghdad in late August.


So that's one rationale for military action debunked. We've still got WMD and "democracy," though. Right?

Also in Iraq, (Reuters) Baghdad bombings hit new high.

(BBC) 4 more US soldiers have died in this horrible month.

(WashTimes) The Special Inspector General who was looking at contractors, contracts and their abuse has been terminated by Congress next year.
