Another NBC executive said that Mr. Shapiro had hoped that the Iraqis pressured Mr. Arnett in the interview and that he would say, “There was a guy behind this orange curtain with an AK-47.”
He couldn’t oblige them, though.
But during a phone call, Mr. Arnett told Mr. Shapiro that he felt no such pressure, a spokeswoman said.

The foreign minister of that mighty world military power, Belgium, says that US war planners “lack professionalism.”
Right. Next time we have to put together a plan for being a doormat to the Germans on their way to France, we’ll be sure to give the pros a call.
Perhaps we should aspire to a “professional” standard that allows thousands of Rwandans to be hacked to death with machetes while we stand by and watch.
In related news, the French foreign minister accused us of arrogance, and poor hygiene.
