BAGHDAD, IRAQ

U.S. Marine Corps Major Dennis MacTaggart sits inside the back seat of the armored car as its drivers guides it through the streets of Baghdad. A uniformed man sits next to him.

"It will be a pleasure working for you, sir," says the Marine Corps major.

"Indeed," says Iraqi Army Colonel Hamdi Azid. "We must discuss the situation concerning Bin Atwa."

Major MacTaggart is silent for a moment.

"Anything wrong?" assk the colonel.

"Uh, I've been going through a lot, sir. Now about bin At..."

Suddenly, a massive explosion rips through the car, tearing apart the bodies of the driver and passengers and spraying lethal shrapnel around this crowded business street.
