Hmmmm....

from debka.com:

Two US aircraft carrier groups plus a Patriot air defense missile battalion planned for the Middle East – the Pentagon
January 12, 2007, 7:37 PM (GMT+02:00)
The US military spokesman said the carrier USS John C. Stennis will join the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower strike group will be deployed in the Persian Gulf for a period of months. The second carrier will not just be showing force, but be actively involved in combat operations and providing air support across the region.” US-Iranian tensions are mounting over Washington’s charges of Iran’s disruptive interference in Iraq, which were spelled out by President George W. Bush Wednesday. US forces detained six Iranian nationals in two raids in Irbil, northern Iraq Thursday.

Debka has been way wrong in the past but has also had some info well ahead of the curve. Could just be associated with the troop "surge" but Patriot missiles wouldn't do much against IEDs.

Maybe we are leaving Iraq through Iran as people have been joking.
Probably not though.

There are some pretty Iranian girls. We should make it our business to find them and wage peace.
