Oh god - the new 'scapegoats'.

Ain't gonna buy that one. Iraq war with the US was *always* going to end up with
a) the US winning and
b) the US *forever* maintaining control of Iraq.

No-one but an idiot would believe that Iran didn't know this/wanted it.
They'd rather have mad but very weak Saddam on the other side of the border that a permanent US troop presence.
