Report: U.S. has plan to attack Iran


(UPI Top Stories Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)The United States may lead an attack on Iran to topple the regime, an unconfirmed report contends.

The Jerusalem Post reports an upcoming story in The New Yorker magazine will cite current and former U.S. intelligence and defense officials as sources for the report.

A Pentagon official in the story said the Bush administration sees war as the only way to end the standoff between Iran and the United States.

In the story, a CIA official says U.S. President George Bush considers Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as another Hitler.

The United States says Iran is trying to produce nuclear weapons and is a destabilizing neighbor for Iraq.
