2. And how did they know they were Syrians
Because of the big red "S" on their chests.

It's good to know that the Marines now have the ability to determine
where someone actually comes from, is this sort of like the theory that the Nazis had about Jews smelling different then non-Jews?

3. Can a Syrian be an "Iraq insurgent"?
I was under the impression than an Iraq insurgent had to be an Iraqi.
