Middle East > I Just Realized We're in a Proxy War with Iran and Syria

So this war in Iraq. This confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. I just realized we're in a proxy war with Iran. And Syria, to a lesser degree.

Iran and Syria have armed Hezbollah with some 14,000 rockets. A Hezbollah soldier tells Reuters he trained in Iran and arrived there on a flight from Syria. It's long been said that Iran was supplying and manning the Iraq resistance.

So we're in a proxy war with Iran and probably Syria. It's worth remembering that as news comes out of the Middle East.

Oh yeah.

We're one incident away from it hitting the fan, big time.
