Here’s TIME Magazine’s Baghdad bureau chief Michael Ware, interviewed by Hugh Hewitt, and you won’t believe how deeply he’s in business with the jihadis. Or maybe you will: Time Magazine’s Michael Ware from Baghdad. (Hat tip: Baldy.)

HH: Have you spent time with the jihadis?

MW: I have. I have. It’s certainly not something that’s simple to do at any time, particularly now. However, in the past, though, I have actually been with Zarqawi’s organization on different occasions. I once was taken to a Zarqawi training camp, although I was not told that that’s where I was going, or for quite a while, that that’s where I was. I’ve been to some of their safe houses. I’ve received some of their propaganda materials.
