You ...Always glad to receive a thoughtful comment.<br /><br />You may think it is silly to argue who is "more at fault" for the development of IEDs (or supplying thereo) but that is the point about which the Iranophobes obsesses and dissemble. <br /><br />Stockman may strike you as a crackpot but that unfairly disregards the voluminous research and analysis that his articles demonstrate. The point about the exact identity of the militia that US forces encountered in the famous "surge" is exactly the right one to make. Instead we get the moronic regurgitation of the dastardly "Iranian proxies" stupidity which reflects zero understanding of the factional realities of Iraq then. As though al-Nusraqaida, ISIS, the Saudis, the Danes, the Germans, the French, and the British are not our "proxies."<br /><br />From what I can see, that's a good summary of your understanding -- zero- of anything over there. "Evil man," "evil regime," "brutal dictator," "proxies," "chief sponsor of terror,""expansionism," and "collusion" are the kind of terms reserved for the kiddie pool when genuine understanding of our involvment in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, Ukraine, and Russia is desperately needed.<br /><br />Maybe a more substantive comment would be in order.

A tempest in a teapot. Stockman is a crackpot these days. Boo hoo. So many tears for an evil man and an evil regime.
