Charles Krauthammer lays out Ahmadinejad's "radically aggressive campaign to assemble, deploy, flaunt and partially activate Iran's proxies in the Arab Middle East":

(1) Hamas launching rockets into Israeli towns and villages across the border from the Gaza Strip. Its intention is to invite an Israeli reaction, preferably a bloody and telegenic ground assault.

(2) Hezbollah heavily rearmed with Iranian rockets transshipped through Syria and preparing for the next round of fighting with Israel. The third Lebanon war, now inevitable, awaits only Tehran's order.

(3) Syria, Iran's only Arab client state, building up forces across the Golan Heights frontier with Israel. And on Wednesday, yet another anti-Syrian member of Lebanon's parliament was killed in a massive car bombing.

(4) The al-Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard training and equipping Shiite extremist militias in the use of the deadliest IEDs and rocketry against American and Iraqi troops. Iran is similarly helping the Taliban attack NATO forces in Afghanistan.

Glenn Greenwald responds:

Of the four crimes in the Bill of Particulars against Iran, only one has anything even ostensibly to do with the U.S., and that is composed of highly dubious claims (arming the Taliban) and ones which hardly demonstrate its Evil (they are interfering in a neighboring country of theirs which we invaded and are occupying with 160,000 soldiers).

First off, there's nothing "dubious" about the claim that Iran is arming the Taliban. We know that Greenwald & Co. think that Petraeus is a liar, but what about Admiral Fallon, who told the AP today:

Iran's Revolutionary Guard is also supplying roadside bomb parts for the type of sophisticated and deadly bombs found in Iraq known as "explosively formed penetrators" — accusations the U.S. has made repeatedly in Iraq as well.

"The Iranians are clearly supplying some amount of lethal aid," Fallon told The Associated Press. "There is no doubt .... that agents from Iran are involved in aiding the insurgency."

Greenwald also says that Iranian 'interference'--a very nice euphemism for killing American troops--is hardly evidence of that regime's "Evil." This is the guy who wrote 5,000 words yesterday on "the art of neoconservative innuendo." Call a spade a spade, Glenn. If you think that Iranian attacks on U.S. forces are justified--just come right out and say it.
