Transcript:
Roland: So what do you think of the new hire? B.D.: He'll do, I guess. I just hope he can go the distance. Mike: Just sign here, Mr. Hassan... Hassan Salah: With pleasure, Mr. Doonesbury! Mike: Hey there, folks! We're on the Kuwait-Iraq border, putting this fine newspaper feature on a solid war footing! By signing up innocent Iraqi civilian Hassan Salah as our newest cast member, we're putting a human face on the enemy for the duration of our war with Iraq! B.D.: I'll interface with Salah and his family as my unit sweeps through his village! Roland: And I'll be right behind to catch his reaction to the invasion... And then do follow-up reports during the occupation! Congratulations, Salah! Salah: Thank you. My family and I look forward to many years of appearing in this space! Roland: Or not. Depends on whether you get smoked. Salah: What? B.D.: Right here, paragraph five.
