...content of dreams to an external source - because that content seems to arise spontaneously and from within - we can't explain it the way we can explain random thoughts that occur to us during waking hours. If you find yourself sitting at your desk and thinking about a bomb exploding in your office, you might say to yourself, "Oh, I watched 24 last night, so I'm just remembering that episode."

...heart of his own story, a complex swirl of accusations and counter-claims. Arrested in Pakistan in 2002, Mohamed was allegedly subject to rendition to Morocco and Afghanistan, before ending up in Guantánamo. U.S. officials said he had trained at terror camps and planned a dirty bomb campaign. Last May the Pentagon formally charged Mohamed with conspiring to commit terrorism and war crimes.
