A report by Newsweek claims that Vice-President Cheney considered asking Israel to attack Iran, in hopes of provoking an Iranian response which could then be used as a pretext for a U.S. attack on Iran.

This is not an unlikely scenario for the anticipated new Middle Eastern War to begin.  Coming on the heels of the Israeli airstrike on a Syrian target (perhaps a nuclear target in Syria also involving North Korea), this report creates more questions about how involved America was in the strike on Syria.
