Woolsey traveling to Europe.

Do you know anything about that?

DIPLOMAT:
I didn't have

anything to do with that.

But you're aware that such

a trip has taken place?

DIPLOMAT:
I can't be your only

source on this.

All right, stay in touch.

Hey, John.

Woolsey was sent to Europe

to look for evidence...

linking Saddam to the World

Trade Center bombing in '93.

Wouldn't be a fool's errand if

they didn't send a fool.

This came from The Italian Lady?

And a diplomat who can

confirm...

the trip was arranged by

Wolfowitz.

What the hell is going on

over at Defense?

Question is, are they trying to

figure out...

if there's any truth to their

theory...

or are they already convinced

their theory is true?

You're sure about

this Woolsey trip?

- Positive.

- You have a third source?

- Yeah.

- Who?

Jim Woolsey.

Hey, it's Walcott,

you up for a field trip?

I figured you'd be calling...

I just didn't think

it would be this soon.

How real is the chatter

about Iraq?

Very.

And it's diverting our attention

from the people who attacked us.

How soon before Iraq becomes

the focus?

We need to blow something up.

Not enough targets in

Afghanistan.

What about bin Laden?

You take out bin Laden...

interest in the war goes right

down the shitter.

REPORTER:
A joint offensive in

its sixth day in Tora Bora...

bin Laden's suspected

hideout...

but still no signs of the

world's most wanted man.

U.S. B-52s pounding Al Qaeda

positions from the air...

while anti-Taliban tanks...

and troops meet strong

resistance...

cave to cave,

from Al Qaeda fighters.

With yet more conflicting

reports...

on bin Laden's whereabouts.

What you got there...

is that your State of the

Union piece for tomorrow?

- Yup.

- You got a lunch today?

Not with you.

I got a one-on-one with Looney

Tunes over at State.

There's a dry hole.

Yeah, well, I figured if I just

let him ramble on...

he'll accidentally stumble

into something newsworthy.

Yeah, well, give my best.

I will. Hot off the presses,

Beryl.

Did you use punctuation

this time?

I even threw in a few semicolons

just for you.

I bet you're the pride of the

University of Missouri.

Terrorists who once occupied

Afghanistan...

now occupy cells

at Guantanamo Bay.

And terrorist leaders who urged

followers to sacrifice...

their lives are running'

for their own.

Now, the administration's top

priority apart from our own...

security is to ensure

freedom for other countries...

looking to embrace democracy

as a way of life.

Now, we... excuse me... we

understand that we can't...

be the policemen to the world...

but we feel we

have a responsibility to...

Yeah, John Walcott.
