More Iran Stuff

New Seymore Hersh article from the New Yorker is online (here). While it's long, the most interesting stuff is in the first half: the military is really pushing back against Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld and their idea of bombing the Iranian nuclear program. Hersh argues that it was the military that got Bush/Rumsfeld to take the idea of using small nukes against the Iranian facilities off the table.

Hersh's track record isn't perfect, so there is no guarantee he's right about this, but he's been good enough before. Its worth a read.
