Sounds like Iran is indeed aiding and abetting terrorists, big surprise...
Exactly.

Dramatic video produced by Iraqi insurgents and captured in a raid earlier this week by U.S. troops clearly shows a battery of sophisticated Iranian-made rocket launchers firing on American positions east of Baghdad, Pentagon officials said Wednesday.

BAGHDAD — Iran's leadership has ordered the production and transfer of advanced improvised explosive devices and other weapons to insurgency groups in Iraq, U.S. officials said.

U.S. officials said Iran has developed so-called explosively-formed projectiles, tested by Hizbullah in Lebanon and then sent to Sunni and Shi'ite insurgency groups in Iraq in 2006, Middle East Newsline reported.

An officer said the order came from the Iranian leadership as part of a campaign to destabilize Iraq.

"Iran is involved in supplying explosively-formed projectiles or EFPs and other material to Iraqi extremist groups," a senior official said.
But to Eric, all "weapons" are the same.
