The issue of alleged Iranian jackassery in Iraq isn’t something I write much (if anything) about, but those who are interested should check out “this presentation”:http://www.realcities.com/multimedia/nationalchannel/archive/mcw/pdf/Iran_in_Iraq.pdf over at McClatchy’s site. It looks to be the DoD officials’ presentation referenced in press reports over the last couple of days, but that’s not totally clear; it could just be McClatchy’s summary.
*Update:*
It’s from the DoD…should’ve read further down in “this _WP_ article.”:http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/11/AR2007021100479.html
bq. The officials released a PowerPoint presentation including photographs of the weaponry, but did not allow media representatives to record, photograph or videotape the briefing or the materials on display
The slides are very similar in layout and design to actual MNF-I slides I’ve seen. It just looks like the classification markings and logos were removed, keeping most of the content. So I’m fairly confident the brief originated with the DoD.
