12. They just needed to have it up there long enough for people to see
Then long after they have taken it down because it wasn't true the RW'ers who saw it will be repeating it as gospel and it will become urban legend and help mold public opinion toward attacking Iran.

17. Exactly. I was going to ask how they knew they were Iranian fighters....
Did they have passports on them, or little Iranian flags, or carry autographed pictures of Ahmadinejad in their wallets????

18. It's possible, but I'll wait for a reliable source to report it
Until then, anything Fox has to say about Iranian fighters with Hezbollah is lumped together with Fox' old stories from the Spring of 2003 about WMDs found in Iraq.

Even if Iranians were found among the dead, would that be a surprise? Hezbollah is a Shia movement, not necessarily a Syrian or Lebanese movement. There may be Iraqis among the dead, too. That individual Iranians would fight with Hezbollah doesn't imply any official policy of the Iranian government to activly support Hezbollah with members of the Republican Guard.

The question of complicity of the Iranian government with Heabollah is an open one and I am willing to listen to evidence about concerning it. However, FoxNews is simply, as usual, making a lot of noise for the neocons in the Bush junta.

20. And Saddam Hussein has WMD
capable of wiping out London in 45 minutes!

These phony pretexts for war are getting ridiculous.
