The Situation in Iraq

Stunningly grim picture of Iraq today.

These clowns are really good at blowing up trucks, but they steer clear of pitched battles with gunn’d up grunts anymore. They make the nightly news real messy, which is rather more effective than overrunning a FOB anyway. But what they do best is stick it to each other, loot the treasury and generally fuck up anything worthwhile that they touch. That’s why they’re known derisively in these parts as "The Mexicans of the Middle East" (which chaps their ass to no end). There are a handful of exceptions, but they’re few and far between.
