1. We don't completely control Iraq. The oil industry are doing industry deals with many different companies.
2. We are. We don;t need somebody to tell us. Who would tell us? The UN? What a joke! No other country can manage the security of the shipping lanes. No other country can project power. No other country is as influential in the region.

As I said, we don't control it, we provide security.

Just out of curiosity, what country are you from, Elena?

FYI smart guy, the Iranians are arming the Taliban in Afghanistan as well.

Irrelevant, the facts are undeniable, Iran is responsible for the deaths of Israeli civilians and soldiers and U.S. soldiers.

Um no full sovereignty has been restored. We are currently there with the permission of the sovereign dually elected Iraqi government.

We are in Iraq and Afghanistan due to several acts of war perpetrated by the governments that we overthrew. But good to see your unabashed support for genocidal tyrannies. Frankly you ****ing disgust me.

If the US is involved then it just means the 'War on Terror' is one huge farce.

Um no the Iranian Revolutionary Guard itself is a terrorist organization, killing them is not an act of terrorism it is an act of self defense. But perhaps you support the killing of U.S. and Israeli soldiers.

It was pointed out to me that innocent Iranians probably lost their lives in this attack. I retracted the post you quoted here: http://www.debatepolitics.com/breaki...post1058314341 (Top Revolutionary Guard commanders assassinated)

dirtpoorchris

Maybe we can have assassinations on the police commanders who quell voices here in America? (I don't want this. Just comparing)

I think it's more likely that this attack is a result of Khameini's control of the Republican Guard, and the way that the guard has been used to crack down on the civil liberties of the people of Iran.

Free Green Iran: Republican Guard Threathens People for Qods Day

Or, for that matter, I could also see it as possible that the Ahmadinejad regime killed Republican Guard leaders who were opposed to Khameini's control of the RG.

It's rather premature to be speculating about U.S. involvement in this matter, when there is zero evidence to support that claim, and plenty of reasons for this to happen internally in Iran.
