| Iraqi blogger uses Star Wars metaphor to decribe celebration |
| 2003-12-15 |
| EFL The celebrations in Baghdad are decribed by an Iraqi as: "...reminisent of the victory scene at the end of Return of The Jedi, when the Death Star was destroyed signifying the end of the Empire. The scene here in Baghdad is truly one worthy of a John Williams soundtrack." If there are Star Wars geeks in Iraq, maybe it is only a matter of time before these people become a military superpower themselves. |

| #4 I saw footage of them doing that gay-ass arab dance. No word on whether the Ewoks' rousing "Jub-Jub" song was sung. |
