Categories: iraq wars

As iraq slides ever more incontrovertibly into civil war, President Bush looks elsewhere to secure his legacy. Seymore Hersh writes in the New Yorker of The Iran Plans

There is a growing conviction among members of the United States military, and in the international community, that President Bush’s ultimate goal in the nuclear confrontation with Iran is regime change… A government consultant with close ties to the civilian leadership in the Pentagon said that Bush was “absolutely convinced that Iran is going to get the bomb” if it is not stopped. He said that the President believes that he must do “what no Democrat or Republican, if elected in the future, would have the courage to do,” and “that saving Iran is going to be his legacy.”
