here's the original piece - a long but interesting read:

http://www.newyorker.com/fact/conten.../060417fa_fact

"One former defense official, who still deals with sensitive issues for the Bush Administration, told me that the military planning was premised on a belief that ?a sustained bombing campaign in Iran will humiliate the religious leadership and lead the public to rise up and overthrow the government.? He added, ?I was shocked when I heard it, and asked myself, ?What are they smoking?? ?

i'm sure the iranians are stocking up on roses to throw at the american's feet.
