Seymour Hersh on the administration's secret war against Iran

This is just really bad in a whole bunch of ways: ranging from 'we don't need another war' to 'the imperial presidency rides again'. The one bright spot here is the integrity of uniformed military officers trying to prevent the administration from pulling the trigger. As I've said before, though, we really shouldn't have to rely on uniformed military officers to save the republic from a White House run amok, and it signals a serious problem with the separation of powers when these guys have to put their careers on the line to keep us out of the shit.
