The Secret Letter From Iraq

Most Profound Man in Iraq — an unidentified farmer in a fairly remote area who, after being asked by Reconnaissance Marines if he had seen any foreign fighters in the area replied "Yes, you."

This farmer might also turn Karl Rove's definition of "terrorist" on its head. Americans must be defeated, an Iraqi would say, because "we can't leave one of the world's largest oil reserves in terrorist hands."

Pot, meet Kettle.
