#1 "He is being questioned extensively."

One hopes the author meant "intensively".

#3 "Cordon-and-knock," just doesn't trip off the tongue. Alternatives:

Maybe "string-and-ring." No, there aren't any doorbells in that part of the world.

Howzabout "trap and rap"? Too urban?

Even "surround and pound" is good, but too easy to assume the pounding is artillery instead of fists. Save it for news coverage of Iran '04.

Hey, what rhymes with "Jehova's Witness"?
