"Just what do you expect Iran to do about Iraqis who believe in the Islamic republic? Do you expect they should be held in detention so as to prevent problems for Rumsfeld? "

Actually,Yes. In wartime if you want to protect yourself from becoming involved you dont use your territory as a base to challenge the victors. Iranians didnt have to jail anyone, just had to discourage them rather than encourage. Do you doubt that clerics are encouraging these folks? Again a failed US effort to control the post war situation is in their interests, no? A shiite clerical state over at least part of iran is in their interests as well. Their =s clerics, not iranian people.
