Ledeen hits one against the wall in right, over at NRO. I don't know why he, out of all the stupid news orgs gets the Brit boat deal correctly:

The Brits were laying down a network of sensors to detect the movement of ships toward major Iraqi oil terminals. The Iranians considered that a bit of a threat. So they attacked.

He shares my view that the CIA and State are asleep along with everyone else. The Iranians intend to attack the terminals in Iraq. Read it.
