   ....[1]acts of war against the US and Nato. But that doesn't seem to
   bother the administration.

     Secretary of Defense Robert Gates stopped short earlier this week
     of blaming Iran, saying the U.S. did not have evidence "of the
     involvement of the Iranian government in support of the Taliban."

   Huh?

     But an analysis by a senior coalition official, obtained by the
     Blotter on ABCNews.com, concludes there is clear evidence of Iran's
     involvement.
     "This is part of a considered policy," says the analysis, "rather
     than the result of low-level corruption and weapons smuggling."
     Iran and the Taliban had been fierce enemies when the Taliban was
     in power in Afghanistan, and their apparent collaboration came as a
     surprise to some in the intelligence community.
     "I think their goal is to make it very clear that Iran has the
     capability to make life worse for the United States on a variety of
     fronts," said Seth Jones of the Rand Institute, "even if they have
     to do some business with a group that has historically been their
     enemy."
     The coalition analysis says munitions recovered in two Iranian
     convoys, on April 11 and May 3, had "clear indications that they
     originated in Iran. Some were identical to Iranian supplied goods
     previously discovered in Iraq."

   I guess we need a written invitation.
