Bush OKs countering Iranians in Iraq By TERENCE HUNT, AP White House Correspondent 1 hour, 43 minutes ago WASHINGTON - President Bush has authorized U.S. forces in Iraq to take whatever actions are necessary to counter Iranian agents deemed a threat to American troops or the public at large, the White House said Friday. ADVERTISEMENT "It makes sense that if somebody's trying to harm our troops, or stop us from achieving our goal, or killing innocent citizens in Iraq, that we will stop them," Bush said. "It's an obligation we all have ... to protect our folks and achieve our goal." The aggressive new policy came in response to intelligence that Iran is supporting terrorists inside Iraq and is providing bombs _ known as improvised explosive devices _ and other equipment to anti-U.S. insurgents. "The president and his national security team over the last several months have continued to receive information that Iranians were supplying IED equipment and or training that was being used to harm American soldiers," National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe said. "As a result American forces, when they receive actionable information, may take the steps necessary to protect themselves as well as the population," Johndroe said. Bush referred to the new policy in his Jan. 10 address to the nation in which he announced a buildup of 21,500 troops in Iraq. He said the United States would confront Iran and Syria more vigorously. While promising tougher action, the White House said the United States does not intend to cross the Iraq-Iran border to attack Iranians. news.yahoo.com

Sergio, Both [VIP] and [CHL] (China Mobile) look better to me than [TSTC] on a cash flow basis. TSTC raised their cash by selling stock. Although it is expected that CHL will sell stock too, it is generating a lot more cash flow. TSTC is a BUY but I prefer CHL and VIP. If TSTC does look like it will be valuable, it could become a buy out target but who knows when that would happen. finance.yahoo.com finance.yahoo.com "Telephones January 25, 2007, 8:59AM EST text size: TT China Mobile's Hot Signal It's already the world's biggest cellular carrier.
