Iran denies permanent dialogue with Chalabi amid Iraq tensions
Iran and an embattled Iraqi politician denied accusations of a permanent dialogue with classified US intelligence material. Iran warned the US via the Swiss Embassy over Iraq actions while about 500 hard line students protested outside the British Embassy in Tehran condemning the Najaf shrine damage and Abu Ghraib abuses. Chalabi, once favored by the Pentagon, fell from US favor over alleged sensitive information given to Iran. Iran rejected charges amid strained ties with Chalabi's Iraqi National Congress.
