Gee and this was in the USA Today.
I wonder if "Brokejaw" or "Captian Dan the News Man" will report this outstanding news that few seem to know about (thanks to the lamestrem press).

I am bullish on Iraq long term and believe that now is the perfect time to buy.
Does anyone know of any investment vehicles that could be utilized to go long on Iraq?
Serious replys would be greatly appreciated.
