The Latest Neocon Lie About Iran by GARY LEUPP

Taheri was also between 1972 and 1979 executive editor-in-chief of Kayhan, Iran's main daily newspaper under the Shah's regime. He contributes to the neocon National Review and his speaking engagements are handled by the warmongering neocon Benador Associates PR firm. He and these colleagues have repeatedly urged a U.S. attack to produce regime change in Iran. The neocons, of course, have shown themselves more than willing to employ deceit in building the case for military action; it is part of their Straussian modus operandi. However much their "intelligence" about Iraq, disseminated through Douglas Feith's Office of Special Plans and media sycophants like Judith Miller, has been discredited, they're plodding on with their strategy of vilifying yet another regime to build popular support for its overthrow.
