Is it pure coincidence that President Bush and Prime Minister Blair singled out Iran’s terrorist activities on the same day? In his address, the president cited Iran’s “long history of collaboration with terrorists” and stated that the U.S. “makes no distinction between those who commit acts of terror and those who support and harbor them.” Blair followed up on comments made yesterday by a British official regarding Iranian involvement in supplying weapons used to attack British soldiers in Iraq. He specifically noted that Britain will not “be subject to any intimidation in raising the necessary and live issues to do with the nuclear weapons obligations of Iran under the (International) Atomic Energy Agency treaty.”
