Hashem's influence was over the professional army rather than the Republican Guard or other elements personally loyal to Saddam, said a former officer of the Defense Intelligence Agency...
...into a Vatican conference room filled with adepts in Augustinian theology debating arcane questions in hurried Latin. The Justices are scarlet-capped cardinals; the law clerks are the brilliant new seminary graduates, their razor minds undulled by actual experience; the lawyers at the dais are the theologians commissioned to assist in plumbing the sacred texts...
