ABU DHABI — Well, I was going to blog the slay­ing of Imad Mugh­niyah ear­lier, but a com­bi­na­tion of sur­pris­ing bar­ri­ers to get­ting online in Abu Dhabi, a crashed lap­top and just arriv­ing here to live put me in the slow lane on this one. I have a col­umn com­ing in Spot​-on​.com, but I have to wait 24 hours to post that. (Con­tracts…) Any­way, in the mean­time, [check out Laura Rozen’s piece](http://www.motherjones.com/mojoblog/archives/2008/02/7208_aterrorist_is_a.html) and be informed. The CIA is seri­ously deny­ing this, but I for one think the agency is a bit more com­pe­tent than it’s usu­ally given credit for. Yeah, it was prob­a­bly the Israelis, but hell… the CIA would *love* to have got­ten this guy.
