Britain and U.S. Warn Iran Over Links with Iraq Rebels
(Telegraph-UK) Thomas Harding and Francis Harris - Britain formally protested to Iran Wednesday over its growing interference in Iraq's internal affairs, citing the smuggling of sophisticated explosives that threaten to send coalition casualties soaring. The move came after British and American intelligence officials said they uncovered evidence that Iran's Revolutionary Guard was providing deadly "shaped" charges to Iraq's insurgents. They are also thought to be providing training and other weapons. Britain's statement came hours after Donald Rumsfeld, the U.S. defense secretary, also accused Iran of smuggling weaponry.
