Adam Smith at the Inquiring Mind has drawn our attention to an article in the current issue of the New Yorker by Seymour Hersh (this was the guy who first reported that the supposed yellow cake purchase by Iraq from Niger was a forgery). The article link is here. It is well worth a read and makes our already depressing analysis of what is going on in Washington all the more depressing.
Just heard that Iran has tested a missile capable of hitting Israel. Oh dear........
