"Iraq the Comedy"---unfortunately, if it wasn't so damn serious
Have to share something that had me and my hubby rolling on the floor during a news report two days ago. My God, we still are clueless in Iraq!

There was this home video made by a resistance/terror group in Iraq given to a news reporter. It showed (green light-like through those night googles), these people squatting in the sand and drawing maps with a stick. They were planning on attacking one of our ammo dumps. Next part of tape were these people standing, joyously jumping around with the exploding ammo dump going off like WWIII behind them---this was no minor boom--it went on and on and on.

Now, before I go on you have to get that scene in your mind. In other words we have people making film in the dessert, sneaking into a heavily guarded (with the best armaments money can buy)ammo dump, blowing it up and filming themselves in front of it. Now to go on....

Next was an interview with one of the top brass over there. He said he saw the tape and was totally unimpressed by these thugs because these guys just had such pathetic, nothing weaponry on them. .... If one were sitting in an athletic stadium, this is where one would point upward and scream "SCOREBOARD, SCOREBOARD". Folks it's this type of sophomoric, assinine thinking that got us into this mess (gonna throw flowers at tanks) and why we are never going to get this place under control (as it financially sucks us dry) even if Allah showed up and supported us................unbelievable........
