A Caution on "Cheney's Hit Squad," If You Please

Seymour Hersh has spoken very recently about an alleged hit squad that was run directly out of Vice President Cheney's office. You can read blog posts about that here and here.

It may be true, I wouldn't put anything past those bastards. On the other hand, I have lost track of the number of times that Hersh reported on the "imminent bombing of Iran."

Hersh is making an extraordinary claim. As the old axiom goes, he now needs to furnish the level of proof required. For without proof, proof which is confirmed by other reporters, Hersh's claims are nothing but crazy talk.
