Since it's old news...I can say (without a doubt) that the data collected is incontrovertible. I have personally seen unexploded mortar rounds marked clear as day with known Iranian markings. It is beyond ridiculous for Iran to deny this.

Yet there are idiots by the mega thousands that believe the denials. Sometimes I think this country needs an enema.
