Iranians Behind Karbala Kidnapping?

I don't understand pushing something like this if you don't plan on doing anything about it. And I don't think Bush is planning on attacking Iran.

BAGHDAD, Jan. 30 — Investigators believe that attackers who used American-style uniforms and weapons to infiltrate a secure compound and kill five American soldiers in Karbala on Jan. 20 may have been trained and financed by Iranian agents, according to American and Iraqi officials knowledgeable about the probe.

The officials said the sophistication of the attack astonished investigators, who doubt that Iraqis could have carried it out on their own — one reason a connection to Iran is being closely examined. Officials provided no direct evidence of a connection.

Possibly a splinter group of the Mahdi army being funded by Iran - suspects in custody? Hmm.

An Iraqi knowledgeable about the investigation said four suspects had already been detained and questioned. Based on those interviews, investigators have concluded that as they fled Karbala with the abducted Americans, the attackers used advanced devices to monitor police communications and avoid the roads where the police were searching.

Suspects in custody?
Of course.

All the guards who allowed the Blackwater mercs in their black Suburbans past the checkpoint are in custody and likely being tortured as we speak. Maybe if they say the light-skinned Engish-speaking mercs were actually Iranians the torture will stop.
