BBC NEWS | Middle East | US imposes new sanctions on Iran

From the article:
The US has repeatedly accused Iran of destabilising Iraq and Afghanistan, blaming the Revolutionary Guards for supplying and training insurgents. The US has repeatedly accused Iran of destabilising Iraq and Afghanistan, blaming the Revolutionary Guards for supplying and training insurgents.

I supposed it has nothing to do with Bremer disbanding the army way back in 2003 and alienating them by stating that former Baathists could not be employed by the army.
If Iran is involved, I couldn't say. My gut reaction is that they are not, considering that Iraq and Iran were at war for for some 10 years before the first gulf war. It just sounds like the state department's continued efforts to cover its a** by blaming everyone else. It sounds as ridiculous as blaming Al Queda for the bombing in London a few years ago. You don't need an international terrorism conglomerate to be the bad guy when the mere myth of one will suffice.
