Woah! Is Dick Cheney Satan or Is Seymour Hersh Insane?

My money is on Dick the Devil.

Seymour Hersh, who I believe was the New Yorker writer who blew open the doors on Abu Ghraib (right?), has dropped another bombshell, claiming that, in a recent meeting in the Vice President's office, the guys tossed around some ideas as to how to provoke a war with Iran. You know: Kill some Americans, start a war, make some money! Hersh said:

There was a dozen ideas proffered about how to trigger a war. The one that interested me the most was why don't we build -- we in our shipyard -- build four or five boats that look like Iranian PT boats. Put Navy seals on them with a lot of arms. And next time one of our boats goes to the Straits of Hormuz, start a shoot-up.

Might cost some lives. And it was rejected because you can't have Americans killing Americans. That's the kind of -- that's the level of stuff we're talking about. Provocation. But that was rejected.

That's some FDR Pearl Harbor shit there, son. That's wicked evil. And so not beyond Dick Nutz.
