Hersh has been predicting a US attack against Iran for over a decade. Cali_Democrat May 2015 #54

He said the Bush administration was planning an attack on Iran. That doesn't seem terribly crazy. Chathamization May 2015 #55

He said the same under the Obama admin as well Cali_Democrat May 2015 #56

Where did Hersh say Obama would attack Iran? N/T Chathamization May 2015 #58
