Iraque?

“The war in Iraq has become a “cause celebre” for Islamic extremists.”

Noting the esprit de corps, the elan and the tres chic noms de guerre of the Islamic extremists, an American intelligence report gave a pessimistic appraisal of the situation in Iraq.

Even under extreme interrogation, all they are willing to discuss are the foibles and futility of personal relationships in Eric Rohmer films.”

On a rare encouraging note, the report believed that Osama bin Laden can be captured by tracing his subscription address on his New Yorkers.
