<I agree intelligence is multifaceted. I know that
And seldom co-located with common sense...

Defend freedom by conscription.

Yep, there's a lot of it around.

In its latest propaganda salvo, the Pentagon (news - web sites) has released leaflets with an image of a shaven, Westernized Osama bin Laden (news - web sites), suggesting the terrorist mastermind had abandoned his al Qaeda network.

In its latest propaganda salvo, U.S. airplanes have dropped leaflets in parts of Afghanistan (news - web sites) depicting a smooth-cheeked, Westernized bin Laden on one side of the leaflet and a picture of a dead al Qaeda operative on the other side with the text: "The murderer and coward has abandoned you."
