Although their sources seem less reliable than the U.S. and Iraqi ones who have been providing more or less the same information for weeks now.  This is perhaps evidence of editorial caution: when Washington launches several dozen cruise missiles into the Iranian training camps, the editors of the anti-American newspaper will, I suppose, not feel themselves obliged to acknowledge that any real threat did, in fact, exist.

I am sure Iran will be happy to call the trained an army instead. The problem is, in these conflicts the borderlines begin to blur. Is a soldier a soldier because of the brass he wears, and is a terrorist a terrorist as he's not inside a helicopter gunship? If noone respects humanitarian laws any longer, I am sure some funny catch 22 situations will occur on both sides of the fence.
