A Pentagon report will accuse Iran of continuing to funnel weapons and training personnel into Iraq, adding fuel to a heated debate among U.S. policy makers about whether Iran deserves any credit for the steep declines in Iraq's once-unrelenting violence.I think this is part of what you could call Operation Tar Baby: Let Iran do what it will in Iraq and hope it gets bogged down there the way we did. Or God (or Allah) forbid, improve things (other than becoming an actual ally of Iran). If Iran gets as fucked up there as our nation is, it would be a significant success. So first step is to chill the rhetoric....

On Iran, the report also will reiterate U.S. accusations that Iran is sending sophisticated explosives, rockets and mortars into Iraq, these people said.
"It's not arguing that Iran's behavior is getting worse, but it's also not arguing that Iran's behavior is getting better," said one U.S. officer familiar with the report.
