UNITED STATESWashington spying on Iran: magazine The United States has conducted "secret reconnaissance" inside Iran since last summer in an effort to identify suspected nuclear, chemical and missile sites that could be destroyed with airstrikes and commando raids, according to a report in The New Yorker magazine. The "missions" were aimed at three dozen or more sites, the magazine revealed. The article suggests that with just two weeks to go before Iraqi elections, the United States has turned its attention to another member of the "axis of evil." The article quoted an unnamed government consultant with close ties to the Pentagon saying, "The civilians in the Pentagon want to go into Iran and destroy as much of the military infrastructure as possible."
