The strategy is, it's a targeting change,’’ Hersh said on CNN’s Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer today. “We're threatening Iran. We've been doing it constantly. But instead of saying to the American people, instead of saying internally it's going to be about nuclear weapons, it's now going to be about getting the guys that are killing our boys.

“We're going to hit the border facilities, the facilities inside Iraq we think are training terrorists,’’ Hersh asserted “We're going to hit the facilities we think are supplying some of the explosive devices into Iraq. This is the administration's position.’’

Hersh also maintains that Bush will not leave office without settling the question of Iran’s nuclear designs – while Tehran insists it is developing only nuclear power, the U.S. and allies see the beginning of a bomb, though still several years from fruition, most outside analysts agree.
