There are all these reports about what this Sheik Mohammed is spilling to his interrogators.

I am skeptical of every one of them. I'm sure those in the know aren't going to tell us what they have or haven't gotten out of the Sheik.

The real game being played here is that of misinformation or disinformation. Leak a bunch of stuff (true or not) and see what happens. Who moves out of their hiding places...who places frantic phone calls or sends frantic e-mail...who meets with untimely and unfortunate accidents.

The value in nabbing a kingpin like the sheik lies not only in what you can actually extract from him, but also what you can pretend you've extracted from him.
