So Multi National Forces-Iraq spokesman Major General William Caldwell was reportedly one of the anonymous briefers in Baghdad yesterday on the Iran in Iraq claims. It's hard to understand how the identity of the briefers can be confused with possibly endangering sources and methods for the information that is being presented at what was after all an international press conference.

Update: Here's Bill Gertz's take on the report, entitled "Iranian support for lethal activity in Iraq." Muck's posted the 16 slides.

More: Given the kerflaw that's followed the 16 words, you think anyone considered 16 slides perhaps an unlucky number? Couldn't they have gone with 15? 17? They started with 200.
