And now the lighter side: Iraqi "legislators demand US apology."
"Iraqi Lawmakers Demand Apology From U.S.


By THOMAS WAGNER, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraqi lawmakers adjourned in protest Tuesday and demanded an apology after a Shiite legislator linked to a radical anti-American cleric tearfully said he was handcuffed and humiliated at a U.S. checkpoint.


It was the third consecutive day that Iraq's interim parliament was sidetracked from its job of setting up a government and writing a constitution.


Beyond the sandbags and blast walls of the U.S.-protected Green Zone, where the National Assembly meets, at least a dozen Iraqis were killed and more than 60 wounded in a series of attacks, including two that targeted the army and its recruits..."

Do these people really think they're a government?

Are they really even dumber than typical Americans?

Unbelievable...
