General Petraeus: "Iran arming the insurgents"

In an interview with CNN, General Petraeus said Iran is fueling sectarian violence in Iraq and supplying weapons, including rocket-propelled grenades, to insurgents. Above is a file photo of General Petraeus in Iraq. Hat tip: PowerLineBlog. Here is the CNN link.

UPDATE: FOX News is reporting Petraeus also labeled the Iranian envoy to Iraq, Hassan Kazemi-Qomi, as a member of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Quds force. The FOX report said Petraeus indicated Kazemi-Qomi had diplomatic immunity and no action would be taken to remove him. The FOX link is here.
