The Laughing Iraqi Cameraman

Following Bush and al-Maliki's press conference in Jordan on Thursday, CNN's Arwa Damon reported, in part:

...The same theme we heard, that we have heard in the past, that Iraqi security forces need to be trained up, this is the right government for the job, that Iraqi prime minister Nouri al-Maliki is the right man for the job but, for many Iraqis when you ask them if their prime minister - if their current government is going to bring them security, they will just tell you 'No, he's not the man for the job'. And in fact, just to give you one example, one of our Iraqi cameramen was watching this press conference and he was laughing, hearing what the prime minister Maliki was saying, what president Bush was saying. These are things Iraqis have heard before: there is no plan that is going to reassure them that moving forward their country will have stability.

Bush's secret service detail then tracked down the cameraman and shipped him to Gitmo.
