Iran’s Ahmadinejad to Visit Baghdad Mar2

I’m sure it’s not the way they hoped the news would be reported, but US and Iraqi forces captured one of the leaders of the insurgency who has been using Iranian armor-piercing EFP (explosively formed projectiles) to kill Americans. Looks like he’s a member of Iran’s Special Forces (or at the very least working with them).

On that same day, Iranian diplomats confirmed that their President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is personally coming to Baghdad. That’ll be quite the scene given the bad blood leftover from the Iran/Iraq war and the 1-2million people who died in it. One way or the other, by force or by diplomacy, Iran will have to stop killing Americans and Iraqis inside Iraq.
