*re: Do you understand now?* Sure do, everything is peachy! Tell you what I don't understand, the following (which I'm sure you saw in the news): Bin Laden Tells Al-Zarqawi to 'Focus' on Attacks Inside US (CNSNews.com) - U.S. officials Monday said recent communication between Osama bin Laden and Iraq's Abu Musab al-Zarqawi suggests the al Qaeda leader "encouraged Zarqawi and his group to focus on attacks inside the United States," Fox News reports. The sources said there are no specifics in the message but called for a "focus" on attacks inside the U.S. Read News on the Web *** Now being a bit cynical, my first questions is "is this misinformation put out for a strategic or political purpose?". Assuming not, then my assumption is that if the government can intercept one bin Laden to Al-Zarqawi message, then certainly they have intercepted others (otherwise why tip their hand). To what political or strategic purpose was this particular message released? As I said, I don't understand... but it's a good example of how it's best to read the news with the source as well as the object in mind. John
