Iran sends 40 tons of drugs to Iraq to fight cholera

http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=25202�ionid=3510212

Iran's 40 ton shipment of drug aid to fight cholera in Iraq has arrived in the country, a source in the Iranian Embassy has reported.

The drug aid includes 20 tons of hypochlorite calcium and 42,000 kilos of Ringer lactate serum which entered Iraq across the Shalamcheh border and was handed to Iraqi health officials.

The recent drug shipment was sent to Iraq following Iran's Minister of Health, Treatment and Medical Education Kamran Baqeri-Lankarani's talks with the head of Iraq's Ministry of Health.

4. I agree with #2....

and was thinking the same thing. We are probably taking satellite pictures of the trucks coming across the border. Then Bush can claim that the trucks are transporting biological weapons to be used against our troops. And,that we need to attack Iran (though he is very sad that his heroic diplomatic efforts had failed)before the smoking gun is a toxic green cloud in NYC.
