This just in from the Drudge Report: Perhaps frustrated by their military impotence or just tired of being bombed all the time, the Taliban has proposed a way of settling things once and for all: a duel between President Bush (or Tony Blair) and the Taliban's big kahuna, Mohammad Omar. The idea would be for the infidels to show up at an agreed-upon location, where they would be met by Mullah Omar. Each duellist would be issued a Kalishnikov and allowed to go at it. The bit with the Kalishnikovs is kind of crude but if we can switch to sabers, there's a kind of antiquated charm to the idea.
