KABUL, Sept. 20 -- A top NATO commander said Thursday that a shipment
of weapons intercepted by international forces in western Afghanistan
earlier this month clearly came from Iran and almost certainly was sent
here with the knowledge of "at least the Iranian military."
U.S. Army Gen. Dan K. McNeill, NATO's senior commander in Afghanistan,
said a convoy of weapons captured Sept. 6 in the far western province
of Farah -- which shares a long border with Iran -- was transporting
"upscale" roadside bombs that had the hallmarks of those made in Iran
and used with lethal regularity against U.S. forces in Iraq.
