- Yes? Hello? This is Ben Bot speaking from the Netherlands. Excuse me? No no, Bot. Ben Bot. Is that you, miss Rice?
- Ah! Mister Bot! How’s life in Copenhagen?
- No no, it is The Hague in the Netherlands, miss Rice. The place where the International Court of Justice of the United Nations is situated.
- International Court of Justice? Never heard of. But never mind, what can I do for you, Ben?
- Well, miss Rice. As the minister of foreign affairs of the Netherlands, it is my duty to tell you that our prime minister is very concerned.
- O?
- Because of the secret prisons of the CIA.
- Yes?
- And he is a little bit disappointed too.
- Aha.
- And also, well… irritated.
- Irritated? Who’s irritated?
- Jan Peter Balkenende.
- Jen Pieter? Say that again.
- Jan Peter Balkenende. Our prime minister. But you can call him JP.
- Well, Ben, thanks for sharing this information with me. Have a nice day and…
- One moment miss Rice. The Dutch parliament asked me to tell you they feel… eehhh… well…
- Yes?
- They feel… belazerd.
- What’s that?
- That means they are… eeeh… a little bit disappointed too.
- Well, Ben, in the war on terror, everyone gets a little bit disappointed sometimes.
- I understand. But the Dutch parliament wants to know how the Muslims in the secret CIA-prisons are doing.
- How they are doing?
- Yes. Because of the human rights.
- Those prisoners are terrorists and Islamic fascists, Ben. They have no rights.
- I know, I know. But how are they doing?
(…)
- Miss Rice?
- Well, let’s say: they are fine, Ben. They are just fine.
- Really?
(…)
- Are you there, miss Rice?
- You want to know a secret, Ben?
- O, yes! Please!
- Well, Ben, just between you and me. These captured terrorists told me: please, if Ben Bot from the Netherlands calls, send him our best regards and tell him we’re doing fine.
- O, that is a relief!
- This is our little secret Ben. Do you understand?
- Yes, miss Rice. My lips are sealed.
- And best wishes to the parliament of your great nation, Ben.
- Thank you miss Rice.
- Appreciate your call. Bye Ben.
