Here’s what Petraeus said yesterday after his briefing of those representatives who chose not to follow the example of the feckless Pelosi:

I’m not sure whether we’ve announced it, but we picked up the Shavani (ph) network head in Iraq. That’s the explosively formed projectile element inside Iraq that gets from the other in Iran the explosively formed projectiles. We have learned a great deal more about Iranian involvement, very nefarious involvement involving funding, training on Iranian soil, advice and the provision of, again, lots of arms and ammunition, including these explosively formed projectiles that have been so lethal against some of our armored vehicles.

Iran is killing our guys, and the secretary of state is begging them to make a nice deal with us. We seem to have gotten the Iraqis to promise to kick out the MEK if only the Iranians will come to Egypt and make nice with Condi. (I am no fan of the MEK, but this sort of preemptive sacrifice is appalling. I guess it’s to make up for her failure to deliver on her promise to release the Erbil 5, as I suggested yesterday).

Pfui.
