TEHRAN (AFP) - US warplanes have violated Iranian airspace in the southwestern oil province of Khuzestan, the Arabic language channel of Iranian state television quoted a local military chief as saying on Sunday.
However, a US military spokesman said he had checked into reports of an airspace violation and denied that any took place.

"Two US aircraft trespassed into Iranian airspace northwest of (the port city of) Abadan before flying southwest into Iraq," a Revolutionary Guards commander in Abadan identified only as Colonel Aqili was quoted as saying by the Al-Alam channel's website.

"The planes left white vapor trails, attracting the local people's attention," he said, without elaborating on when the alleged incursion took place.

Well is seems things are yet again heating up. Did the U.S. enter Iran by mistake? How could they have, is what I first thought. I mean with everything the way it is right now. How could that mistake have been made? I believe the recieved orders to enter Iranian territory. What are your opinions? I think the U.S. Government saw the British Government backing down on the standoff with Iran and decided to stir things up again.
