#2 Put some Bathists in orange jumpsuits

With nice, high contrast black bulls-eye targets on chest and back. Just in case some of the Iraqis who've lost family to these thugs get itchy trigger fingers. We wouldn't want them to miss and hit a good guy by mistake now...

Now that is an insult to our prison population...

From the article: At times, locals will point out potential bomb sights, for fear that an attack could harm their children, Lipe said.

Good that the locals are realizing that the 'insurgents' dont really care who they kill....

#6 The crew has received occasional rifle fire, but it is mostly inaccurate shots that donât justify a response.
Nope. Don't wanna kill him. They may replace him with someone who can shoot straight.
