The capture of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, believed to be the man who
created the 9/11 plot, proves a couple of things.
First, it shows that the CIA and FBI, with local assistance and if given enough
time, manpower, and budget—including a $25 million reward—can track down and
locate anyone.
More important, it emphasizes that it’s not Iraq that the U.S.
should be trying to obliterate from the earth. Mohammad, director of operations
for al-Qaeda, is a Kuwaiti-Pakistani citizen who was captured near Islamabad,
the Pakistani capital.

"Perhaps one way will be, if we use military force, in the post-Saddam Iraq the U.N. will definitely need to have a role. And that way it can begin to get its legs, legs of responsibility back." —George W. Bush, the Azores, Portugal, March 16, 2003
This quote is proof that he bought his way through college, his business career and eventually the presidency. Gawd, we're f---ed.
