U.S. Forces Storm Iranian Consulate

It's a start. A big chunk of the cleanup in Iraq will entail ridding Iranian and Syrian influence and waking the American people up to the fact Iran poses a huge threat to our future security.

US forces have stormed an Iranian consulate in the northern Iraqi town of Irbil and seized six members of staff.

The troops raided the building at about 0300 (0001GMT), taking away computers and papers, according to Kurdish media and senior local officials.

The US military would only confirm the detention of six people around Irbil.

Tehran said the attack violated all international conventions. It has summoned ambassadors from Switzerland, representing US interests, and Iraq.

A spokesman for Iran's foreign ministry described the raid as an attempt to sabotage Tehran's relations with Iraq. One Iranian MP said it showed America's cruelty and meanness.

Oooh, we're so mean! Waaaah!

UPDATE at 5:30: Appears there was a hiccup with the post earlier and I just now realized it was double-posted. Anyway, the NY Sun says Bush Warns Iranians.
