#15  OP - So you drew those boxes with the diagonals over the Michelin plantations? Lol!

#14  Actually, I nominate Iran as the new Laos. Let the bombings begin. Hell, I'll even go back on active duty and draw the boxes, like I did before... Only this time, NOTHING is off-limits (except Persepolis, which is only off-limits for ARCLIGHT strikes - we can still hit it with Agent Banana - a highly-effective, skin-absorbtive laxative agent).

#12  Actually, I think Rowan Atkinson would make a fine Baby Asshead. And Mike al-Moor as Abu Hamza, of course.

#7  It was Christmas, 2004. My swift boat had been sent up the Tigris River into Iran. I remember it well. It's seared into my memory.

Well, if Iraq is the new France, then Iran is the new Germany. Of course, that makes Syria the new Spain.

#1  Should read, "Busily Blacktopping Ho Chi Minh Trail For The 21st Century, Iran Military Promises New Vietnam In Iraq".

Hopefully it's to the same engineering standard of Iran's crumbling new international airport.
