Glad I'm not there

Here's a funny little tidbit, courtesy of The Onion.

The Iraqi Terror Alert System

This is kind of funny, but at the same time, I know that my friends and family members over there have to deal with that stuff every day. Let's just hope they can pull out at some point and leave the Iraqi people relatively self-sufficient. The real losers here aren't even the troops; at least they can go home eventually. The losers are the vast majority of Iraqis that just want to go to work and have a home and a family. They're the ones getting torn apart by car bombs. The insurgents are really doing a good job of shooting their own country in the foot. Maybe they'll get that top color, "Paradise."
