Iran helping Afghan Insurgents

It has been reported that Iran is decreasing its' support for insurgents in Iraq. It is alleged they are no longer allowing weapons to freely flow across their border into Iraq. A recent report from the Pentagon disputes this assertion.

Canada is now saying they have turned their attention to arming insurgent's in Afghanistan....

From Iran Focus --

KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan - Defence Minister Peter MacKay says weapons are flowing from Iran into the hands of Afghan insurgents.

He says improvised explosive devices from Iran have been a particular concern for Canadians.

Most of Canada's 73 combat deaths have been the result of IEDs.He says it's been difficult for Canada to address the issue though he has made his concerns known to the Iranian government.

He says it's difficult to cut the lines of supply when you have people in other countries giving weapons to be used against Canadian and coalition forces.
