Iran needs to be sent a big, loud, serious message that supplying our enemies make you an enemy in our war in Iraq. And we seem to be finding more and more concrete evidence of Iranian weapons smuggling, as we did in capturing some terrorists with links to Iran inside the Iraqi border:

Coalition forces detained two suspected terrorists possibly affiliated with the Iranian military in a raid yesterday near the Iranian border. The men were secured from a rural farm compound before dawn, and a number of weapons were confiscated during the raid. The suspects may be associated with a network that has been smuggling explosives, weapons, people and money from Iran into Iraq, officials said.

“Coalition troops remain relentless in their pursuit of terrorists who smuggle deadly (explosives) and other lethal aid into Iraq to be used against coalition forces and innocent Iraqis,” Army Maj. Marc Young, a Multinational Force Iraq spokesman, said.

The US military says its troops have found Chinese-made missiles it believes were smuggled into Iraq by groups in Iran to arm insurgents fighting American-led forces.

US military spokesman Admiral Mark Fox says Iranian agents also continue to smuggle Iranian made armour-piercing bombs to Iraqi extremist groups across the country’s long border.

More than 200 US soldiers have been killed by the bombs since May 2004, when they first emerged on the Iraqi battlefield.

We send to sen a message. Preferrably one from the 3 US aircraft carriers now stationed in the region. Iran doesn’t seem to understand what we are telling them, so it is well beyond time to use those big sticks of ours.
