The rockets were purchased from Iran. We found some stamped with ‘born on’ dates after the fighting began. So we know that these guys were supported by Iran. We know for a fact they were dealing with Iran. The same thing with their EFPs, their explosively-formed penetrators. They’re getting those directly from Iran.”
EFPs are the most terrifying IEDs ever designed. They fire molten copper plates faster than bullets at passing vehicles which cut through Humvees and tanks as though they were Jell-O.

If IEDs are being mass-produced in Iranian factories, shouldn’t they stop being called “improvised explosive devices?”
