oy.

with 6 months to go, how much of a war could bush&co. actually scare up?

is the plan to take some 'strategic strikes' and then leave the aftermath for obama to clean up?

or do they really think mccain will win and finish up for them?

the sheer idiocy is difficult to comprehend.

Yeah, leave to the elitist snob press to gab about covert operations that only make those operations less likely to succeed and puts those operative’s lives in grave danger.

i saw chris hedges read last month, and he eluded to this article (he'd been at an event w/ hersh the same week). it's terrifying.

Here we go again. When will the American population get mad enough to storm the White house? Never. As long as the bombs drop "over there" and the little brown people are the ones getting blown apart, the White American population is complacent to let the "Butcher of Baghdad" G.W. Bush to run rough-shod.

Bush has boxed himself in a corner. They didn't expect a proxy war with Iran in Afghanistan. Iran has a lot of money. Isreal is bent on an attack. They all may be willing to sacrifice Iran's oil. Look for $10.00/gal. gas.

But I am so sure that we will be greeted as liberators this time...won't we?

Not a single penis joke?

Thanks for posting the link. Terry Gross interviewed him on "Fresh Air" yesterday, and it was compelling - and terrifying.

I've lost a little faith in Hersh - he's been predicting Iran would be attacked *within six months* for over three years now.

i wouldn't get too worked up about the press blowing anybody's cover in iran, after all iran has its own intelligence network and covert operations forces and they have been active in iraq already. i doubt the iranian government is watching cnn trying to figure out us secret policy.
