Editor's Note: My apologies for the extremely light posting of late. I've been hit by the perfect storm of a major crisis in my day job, and the apparent death of my home computer. Hopefully at least one of the two will be resolved in the near future to allow for the resumption of more regular postings.
In the meantime, over the weekend The Washington Post published an interesting account of "Roger," the head of the CIA's Counterterrorism Center (CTC) and architect of the Drone War. Among the more interesting pieces of information (which are naturally limited given the sensitivity of the subject) is that while posted abroad, "Roger" fell in love with a Muslim woman and converted to Islam in order to marry her.
Ah, the crazy things we do for love . . . although it apparently hasn't inhibited him from blowing al-Qa'ida operatives and other militants to smithereens at an impressive rate.
