A Few Good Jihadis

Word from Hollywood is that Aaron Sorkin is busy adapting Norman Mahler’s The Challenge: Hamdan v Rumsfeld and the Fight over Presidential Power into a screenplay. George Clooney has expressed interest in starring in and directing the project, which is described as a courtroom drama about a Navy lawyer representing Osama Bin Laden’s driver, who was imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay for five years.

I can imagine the voice over on the trailer now:

In a world where Bush Administration policy has gone to extremes, one man has the courage to reign in a renegade president and protect innocent foreign chauffeurs…that man is Lt. Col. Tuck McPecrock…

I think I’ll wait for the DVD.
