Iran halting weapons flow, general says BAGHDAD - Iran appears to be honoring an informal pledge to halt the smuggling of explosives and other weapons into Iraq, contributing to a drop of bombings by nearly a half since March, a senior US general said yesterday. "We have not seen any recent evidence that weapons continue to come across the border into Iraq," Major General James Simmons said. "We believe that the initiatives and the commitments that the Iranians have made appear to be holding up."

One wonders? Three carrier battle groups off shore. Moving all the Marines to Afghanistan on Iran's eastern border. The absolute inability of Iran's useful idiots in the Congress to stop us from winning in Iraq.
