Iran removed their troops, the article says. Basically another muscle-flexing demonstration. A dangerous one, however. I have my doubts the people in charge in that country know what they're messing with. The US may be bogged down in two guerilla wars, but they can still unleash an unholy hell like few others when it comes to a conventional war and would bomb Iran's infrastructure into the Stone Age if necessary. I am still under the belief a war against Iran would be far more successful for the US than either war in Iraq or Afghanistan. Not to mention when Iran starts invading Iraq and laying claim to oil wells it puts the rest of NATO and the world in a bad spot, too. It starts to give other countries a legit cassus belli.
