Gotcha—take two

Christian Century,  Nov 14, 2006  

GOTCHA--TAKE TWO: When Jeff Stein, national security editor at the Congressional Quarterly, asks people on Capitol Hill and in federal agencies whether they know the difference between Sunni and Shi'ite Muslims, he often gets blank stares. Terry Everett (R., Ala.) responded, "One's in one location, another's in another location.

No, to be honest with you, I don't know." Everett is vice chair of the House intelligence subcommittee on technical and tactical intelligence. Commented Stein, "Wouldn't British counterterrorism officials responsible for Northern Ireland know the difference between Catholics and Protestants?" (New York Times, October 17).
