“ Iran Picks A Fight By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY | Middle East: Reports of Iranian forces crossing the border into Iraq have gotten a bit of — though not enough — media attention this week.

All we can do is try to defend ourselves. We are badly on the back foot. "In effect," the source said, "it means we are in a full on war with Iran — but nobody has officially declared it."
