Not the Jews After All

Well well well. It seems as if fears about foreign interests getting us into the Iraq mess might not have been so far fetched. Except for one thing. A lot of lefties, especially in blog comments, have claimed that the United States is only in Iraq to help Israel. Despite there being no evidence whatsoever to suggest this, it remains a popular strain of thought among those who like to see shadows of Jews lurking everywhere.

But it turns out that it wasn't the Jews after all. In fact, according to the above linked Guardian article, it may have actually been...the Iranians. Hmm. So it wasn't the Elders of Zion. What a shocker.
