Depends on what "this" is. To implement +, you have to touch the
source code of each iterator, which is not simple. However, I find

def add_iter(*iters):
    for i in iters:
        for e in i:
            yield e
    raise StopIteration

a = iter((2, 3, 4))
b = iter((5, 6, 7))

for x in add_iter(a, b):  # concatenate two iterators
   print x,

quite simple already.
