Something to really worry about
AMDG (for those worried aboout whether this is Catholic)
Seymour Hersh, who seems to have an inexhaustable supply of leakers and informants, writes in this week’s New Yorker about U.S.-Israel cooperation on Lebanon and seems to draw a line from that cooperation to a faction in the Bush Administration waiting to go after Iran. Even if only half of Hersh’s informants is right, there is much here to gnash our teeth over.
Most notable for me (I have just finished reading Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq), is the resistance, according to Hersh, of the Pentagon military (except for the Air Force) to an Iran adventure and perhaps even a cautionary stance by Donald Rumsfeld (maybe he too has read Fiasco).
Here is the link (I think) http://www.newyorker.com/printables/fact/060821fa_fact
I’ll look forward to the discussion (if not, I am going back to my sermons on Fiasco! by Thomas Rick and available on Amazon.
