Sheik & Ice Cream - What the H could they have in common - Just ask the State Dept. Rep in Anbar!!!!
Edited on Thu Sep-13-07 06:10 PM by 1776Forever
One morning at 1:00 am a few weeks ago, I was listening to CSPAN and a State Dept. rep and a Marine Captain were talking from the Anbar region of Iraq. They were talking about the Sheik that was killed today. The State Dept. woman said “We can actually walk down the street and get an ice cream cone if we want to.” The Marine Captain said they had just given out a million dollars in contracts to the businesses in the Anbar region area and then he talked with glowing terms about the Sheik that was helping them. I saw today that Sheik was killed. Very unfortunate!!!! More reason to get the NATO or UN forces in there and get us out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
