Didn't I tell you?
About a year ago (February 3rd, 2004), I wrote a little piece in my Persian Weblog about the news of a Pakistani nuclear scientist who had admitted to selling plans of making an Atomic Bomb to Iran. The news came convenienetly at the eve of George W. Bush's announcement of the the creation of a bi-partisan committee to look into the nuclear activities of other countries.
Back then, I half jokingly suggested that this timely burst of honesty from the Pakistani side is eventually going to be taken up by the government and used against Iran. I didn't think it is going to come true. But now, read this article from the New Yorker and pay particular attention to the paragraph two of the "T" section!

I have seen several interviews with Seymour Hersh recently. (I have not read the article yet, but I will try to make time to do so.) Unlike the Presidential Administration of Professional Liers, I do not doubt the veracity of his sources. Afterall, I understand that his reporting was instrumental in exposing the Abu Greb fiasco. I don't doubt that Bush would love to drop bombs on Iran. I truly hope that it does not happen. If he does his Texas cowboy routine again, he will not only kill many innocent civilians, he will only manage to strengthen the Mullah's grip on power.
