Good hunting to task force 121
By Tom Smith

The New York Times is reporting the set up of a new covert action task force to hunt down Saddam and OBL. Here's to wishing they get visits soon from Mr. JDAM. (I heard this expression -- visit from Mr. JDAM -- from a Marine colonel just back from Iraq and thought it was pretty cute.) Slate provides good background.

In other news, worry about a possible imminent attack in Saudi Arabia has prompted the US to close its embassy.
