Lies

and the Lying Liars That Tell Them Dept.
Speaking of neocons, Glenn Greenwald's post today really isn't about them, although it starts out that way.
It's about the re-emerging neocon argument, abetted by the Israeli government, for an attack on Iran. Is that why Hillary used the obliterate word only days ago?
When I started this obsessive reading of blogs, it was largely because Sy Hersch and Scott Ritter and others had convinced me Cheney really was planning an attack on Iran. I found out who AIPAC was.
But by the time Joe Biden said Bush would face impeachment if he did it, I sort of felt like everybody was backing off a bit.
Now it rears its ugly head again.
From Glenn:
Bush has less than eight months left to fulfill his history-mandated mission "to prevent another holocaust" by attacking Iran, or else "be in the historical dock if he allows Iran to get the bomb." They're as transparent as they are dishonest and bloodthirsty.
