For the struggle formerly known as the war on terror, the score moves up to 5:
Actually, make that 6. I know it's the president's aides rather than the man himself, but as FKATWOT adjudicator I deem it relevant:Mr Obama said: "I cannot respect terrorist organisations that would kill innocent civilians and we will hunt them down."
He added that al-Qaeda seemed nervous, saying: "What that tells me is that their ideas are bankrupt. What they've been doing is destroying things. And over time, I think the Muslim world has recognised that that path is leading no place, except more death and destruction..."
President Obama intends to adopt a tougher line toward Hamid Karzai, the Afghan president, as part of a new American approach to Afghanistan that will put more emphasis on waging war than on development, senior administration officials said Tuesday.
Oy, aschlebbik - 'hunt them down', 'more emphasis on waging war'. Heart attacks at the Guardian.
