"REYKJAVIK (Reuters) - A teen-ager says he convinced the White House he was Iceland's president and managed to schedule a call with George W. Bush but was found out before he got to talk to the U.S. president."My call was transferred around a few times until I got hold of Bush's secretary and managed to book a call meeting with Bush the following Monday evening," Vifill Atlason, 16, told Reuters.
The teen-ager posed as Icelandic President Olafur Ragnar Grimsson when he made the call on Dec 1.
Icelandic police turned up at his door two days later -- the day of the planned call -- and took him in for questioning.
"They told me the CIA had called the National Commissioner of the Icelandic police and asked if the police could try and find out where I received that phone number from," said Atlason."
I wonder if this Act of Aggression would qualify the kid as an Unlawful Combatant? Or a Terraist Sympathizer? Maybe just an Appeaser. Because things like this Embolden the Enemy.
