M,
While we are on this history lesson binge...let me share with you some other little tidbits. Do you remember the embargo that Shrub's daddy put on Iraq after the Gulf War.

No American goods could be sold to Iraq....NONE! NADA!

Now who is one of the largest contributors to the Republican party...and who is fighting against lawsuits and wants to put limits on damages. Whummmm! Bush and Cigarette companies.....right!

But back to this issue of banning all American products being sold in Iraq.

Ever heard of a fellow named Abdul Hamid Damiyi?
Ever heard of RJR Tobacco Company?
Ever heard of one Udai Hussien?

Do a little research of a court case pending in Winston-Salem, NC that involves the above mentioned Abdul Damiyi?

Find out what business Abdul "had" before one Udai Hussien stepped in and took over. By the way, Udai is Saddam's son!

When you finish your research I bet you will really chuckle over the fact that that stellar US company..one RJR denies, denies, and then denies that they have ever done business with Abdul...even though there are all kinds of pictures and records of him being royally treated by RJR during his trips to Winston-Salem...

A great story...I think you will enjoy the research and the realization that when we wipe Iraq off the face of the earth...Udai is really going to be POed! But the real question is going to be...where in the hell is RJR going to sell those 500 million RJR cigarettes that the Iraqi now smoke in a month. When you consider that it will be the Iraqi's that will really be smoking when the missiles hit...ain't going to be anyone left to smoke cigs!
