Easy way to make a symbolic statement about Iraq
My sister started wearing 2 watches, 1 on each arm. One is set to our local time and the other is set to Iraq time. When she is questioned about this she simply says that it's a way of acknowledging and honoring our soldiers in Iraq and the Iraqi people. That there are people who exist outside of our country and they matter also. It's simple and I believe brilliant.

2. I thought so too
She's very thoughtful and creative. She's a teacher so she can't wear any "radical" buttons or anything, but this works.
