AGHDAD, Iraq, Feb. 8 — American officials here have obtained a detailed proposal that they conclude was written by an operative in Iraq to senior leaders of Al Qaeda, asking for help to wage a "sectarian war" in Iraq in the next months.

The Americans say they believe that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian who has long been under scrutiny by the United States for suspected ties to Al Qaeda, wrote the undated 17-page document. Mr. Zarqawi is believed to be operating here in Iraq.

3. "written by an operative in Iraq"

Like the "letters home" written by that psyops guy last Christmas.
I guess we are in for a barrage of this kind of swill until the election. After that, they won't even bother anymore.

4. But... but... but...

Didn't Bush say they were already working together? Oh wait, that would be assuming he was telling the truth. I should have known better when I saw that his lips were moving. Nevermind.
