Interestingly enough, there were mass demonstrations this morning in Iran - moderates who were protesting their own government's suspected leading role in planning and carrying out those attacks.

During the daylight raid on the Fallujah police station many witnesses claimed the gunmen were speaking Farsi, which I gathered meant they were saying that they were Iranian. A few days later the US military came out with a statement that in fact the gunmen were not iranian but were sunnis looking to free one of their own who was arrested for a part in another bombing.
In other words, I'm not sure anyone knows who's doing all this, and I include the US forces in that assessment. My point was more that when the US forces are looking for a honcho who could plan what by all accounts was a sophisticated simultaneous assault, they come up with this dude that we could have taken out a few years ago.
