3. We let them use one for the photo-op and then took it away real quick ...
...and gave them back their 1993 Ford Ranger patrol vehicle to actually use. Thats my guess anyway.

With as much oil as we have stolen from the Iraqis by now everyone in Iraq could be driving their brand new H2 Hummer and living large.
