Prospects

Something chilling I read this morning in the WSJ about the US efforts in Iraq. The story was about a Col. in the US Marines who is trying to bring the sunnis and shias on to one page. The article talks about a capture of a 14 yr old boy who was in one of Zarqawi’s cells which was responsible for kidnapping and beheadings. when the Americans were questioning him about his role he mentioned said..“I was responsible for holding the legs still…as someone decapitated the victims”. In the company of his father, to whom he was returned, he was asked “what do you want to be when you grow up?”…he replied.."to be the one who gets to decapitate the mushkireen (sp) "

His father…just looked away…
