White House LIES About Iran Arming Taliban
In September 2002, American Vice President Dick Cheney said, "We now have irrefutable evidence that Saddam has once again set up and reconstituted his program to take uranium, to enrich it to sufficiently high grade, so that it will function as the base material as a nuclear weapon." That was a lie. Everyone knows it. But as a result of that lie, Iraq is what it is today thanks to the corrupt and misguided strategy of Bush, Cheney and the Republicans.
Flash forward to 2007. American Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns declared in Paris this week that there was "irrefutable evidence" that Iran was arming the Taliban forces in Afghanistan. Another lie!
Even Afghan government officials are disputing this most recent White House lie.
The Taliban are Sunni fundamentalist extremists. The government of Iran is made up of Shia fundamentalists. They hate each other.
So what do we make of this recent American government false statement? Once again we have the White House playing to the lowest intellect level of their supporters in the American public. But why? I guess time will tell.

Great minds, Dawg. :-)
I posted that it was a lie the day before the Afghan government denied it, because to do so is against Iran's interests.
