<edit: did anyone know this??>

Congressman Kucinich grilled U.N. Ambassador John Bolton Tuesday about U.S. troops already operating in Iran. The exchange came during a House subcommittee hearing on the future of U.N. sanctions after the oil-for-food scandal.

As the hearing of the Subcommittee on National Security, Emerging Threats and International Relations (NSETIR) came to a close, Kucinich, who is the ranking minority member, asked the ambassador for 10 more minutes, then inquired, "Are there U.S. troops in Iran or are there not U.S. troops in Iran?" Bolton replied, "I have no knowledge whatsoever on that subject."

Kucinich then referred to Seymour Hersh's recent article in The New Yorker, where Hersh reported that a U.S. source had told him that U.S. marines were operating in the Baluchi, Azeri and Kurdish regions of Iran.
