14. Is Raw Story got that facts and denying Cohen's source
Cohen said his source for the latest report was a "retired US career diplomat and former assistant secretary of state still active in the foreign affairs community" who was an ambassador under President Bush's father, George H.W. Bush. Few precise details about the supposed strike were offered in the Asia Times report

So we have Asia Times and Raw Story and NO US papers

Its in the Pakistan Daily

Podhoretz: Bush to Bomb Iran Before Leaving Office

In normal, non-Bushzarro times, a man calling for mass murder would be held in contempt, not held up as an example of the political mainstream and heralded as a �distinguished author.� However, as we are well astride of the Bushzarro era, Norman Podhoretz is provided with a venue�for the proper audience, of course�to advocate the destruction of Iran and the murder of possibly thousands of its citizens. �I believe,� Podhoretz told the Israel Broadcast Authority on May 24 (see video below), �contrary to what many people assume, that will before he leaves office, possibly shortly before he leaves office,� thus leaving the political fallout to the incoming president, more than likely a Democrat. �I think he agrees with the analysis that I offer that there is no alternative to military action.�

Of course, in order to sell this invasion of a sovereign nation, based on illusory claims the mullahs of Iran are in the process of building a nuclear bomb to use against Israel�a crackpot theory but one that remarkably has gained a degree of credence in the United States�Podhoretz and the neocons have erected an elaborate if preposterous edifice to support their Brothers Grimm fable about Iran

Looks like Podhoretz has put a News cast in Israel

Finally, the Podhoretz appearance on Israeli television and his avowed declaration Bush will certainly invade Iran arrives less than two weeks after out-going United Nations ambassador John Bolton told the Daily Telegraph �Iran would be as dangerous as �Hitler marching into the Rhineland' in 1936 and should be prevented by Western military strikes if necessary�. The Pentagon has drawn up contingency plans for military action and some senior White House officials share Mr Bolton's thinking.�
