xerxes- BCU= Battery Cooling Unit. Cools the seeker head on portable missile prior to firing (to make it more sensitive to infra-red radiation).

wrt the Sunnis- we do have evidence of Iranian ties to Sunnis in Iraq. Not saying they are the major source of support, but they have definitely been involved.

Iran sees that the other Arab States will become involved, and wants to keep ties open with both groups in Iraq so as to maintain some influence over events.

(ignore the dramatic headline, lol. But read the part about the documents captured in Iraq)
