Actually, it's a combination of the two, but I won't split hairs on this one.

That were being used as human shields and no, it doesn't sound familiar. Saddam
kept hiding. QWB was quite public about where he's been. GWB wasn't anywhere

Attacking Walt Disney World made more sense then the WTC if Bush was the
intended target.
