Who's our enemy again?

The Fourth Rail has a good run down of the raid in Irbil the other day. Although it would have been poetic justice to raid an Iranian consulate, it turns out not to have been a consulate so much as an office for members of the Iranian military.

I'm quite a distance from the Iranian border, but I wonder if we might not end up looking east when we talk about the enemy. Heck, I spent 6 months trying to learn Arabic, now maybe I should be studying Farsi instead.
