They probably just wanted a check or two and another AK-47. Can't have too many of those in Iraq!

More Than 1,000 in Iraq’s Forces Quit Basra Fight " That has been pretty widely reported. Remember how Brumar was crowing about all those people trying to join the Iraqi army as proof of Maliki's victory? In reality, they were trying to join because they heard there were a lot of new openings. Isn't unemployment somewhere around 40% in Iraq? What's amazing is how much Brumar and Ray are in denial. And what's more disturbing is how once again, the American press has failed to report how bad things were getting once again until just recently.
