Is it just us . . . ?

Or is it in fact strange to you that so many Iranians could be in one of Iraq's central provinces?

Some 50 Iranians along with an Iranian security forces commander have been arrested by Iraq’s security forces in the central [Iraqi] province of Diyala, an Iraqi television channel reported.

The arrests were made during a raid jointly by American and Iraqi forces late Sunday . . . .

Now most assuredly this is an official Iranian action giving direct aid and comfort to enemy combatants in the field against U.S. forces.

Surely this would warrant some kind of punitive strike on the Iranians. Say, shoot down one of their fighters, sink one of their naval vessels, sever a pipeline that brings in gasoline from outside?

#$@%#! When is there ever a penalty for these killers? The West has for way too long allowed these bottom feeders to believe that there's no tomorrow.
