BAATHIST BROADCASTING CORPORATION II: This recollection from a reader who only just avoided a car accident:

Here’s a BBC classic, heard while driving on September 11 listening to BBC World Service in car… Sorry couldn’t write down exact words. Was around 10.25 Greenwich Mean Time – roughly 6.25 in USA…:
“At the one extreme you have George W Bush, at the other Osama Bin Laden..”
Just as I was choking on this one the presenter went on to say and…in the middle, President Musharaff is pointing out that relations with the Muslim world have deteriorated since 9.11 etc etc…

Ah, yes. Bin Laden and Bush. Just as bad. Aren’t they, Noam?
