The Bush administration is stepping up its confrontation with Iran, accusing the Islamic regime in Tehran of supplying arms to Shiite Muslim militias in Iraq for attacks on US forces.

Steve Hammons asks: "Despite recent election results reflecting Americans' concerns about the Iraq War and related matters, will George W.
