Sy Hersh whips the Pentagon for trouncing the CIA and training its sights on Iran. But why is that different than the way in which all Black Ops is supposed to work? And how armed spies have always been used by this country?

Sy Hersh has been Frigthener-in-Chief of Black Ops journalism at the New Yorker for ages, and nobody (save, perhaps, the angry but still under-wraps Pentagon flacks) dare question his most recent screed; that the neocons inside the Pentagon have snatched up every camouflaged Special Forces operative to use them for not one war, but several. Plural. Except there’s a detail everyone’s missing.


In his piece, Hersh goes to great lengths to describe how the people referred to by Maureen Dowd as “Bushies” are girding for a military showdown with Iran after we mop up in Iraq, bug out and call it even.
