Fox News asked former CIA field officer Bob Baer on Tuesday
whether the US is "gearing up for a military strike on Iran."
Baer has written a
column for Time indicating that Washington officials
expect an attack within the next six months.
"I've taken an informal poll inside the government," Baer told
Fox. "The feeling is we will hit the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
Corps." His Time column also suggested that "as long as
we have bombers and missiles in the air, we will hit Iran's nuclear
facilities."
Baer explained that what his sources anticipate is "not exactly
a war." He said the administration is convinced "that the Iranians
are interfering in Iraq and the rest of the Gulf" but that "if
there is an attack on Iran it would be very quick, it would be
a warning."

"We won't see American troops cross the border. ... If this is
going to happen, it's going to happen very quickly and it's going
to surprise a lot of people," said Baer. "I hope I'm wrong frankly,
but we're going to see."
