Population control?
As with everything in Iraq, it is not as bad as the media portrays it.
It's hard to repair the grid for good right now when terrorists keep bombing power plants or other sources.
And that's what they do.
"The soft glow of electric sex."
My B.S. detector is going nuts.
Most of the country never had these basic services outside of the Sunni Triangle. Also, it is hard to create infrastructure when you have a significant portion of the population determined to destroy what you build. Think about how easy it would be to knock out power and water to your own city if that was your agenda. Five terrorists with a can of gasoline each could burn down half the country if they wanted to.
Your BS detector is absolutely spot-on in this case. ;-) This article appears to be rife with distortion and exxageration.
How about when the power is on, the water gets heated. It doesn't just cool off when the power goes off. It remains warm for a day or so. Adjust the water until it is comfortable. I find that straight water out of the tank without adding the cold works just fine, but of course I gradjeated form High Screwl.
Well, cleanliness IS next to godliness.
Though if mundane stuff like this is all the Iraqis have to complain about, we're doing pretty well there.
Making love for many of Iraq's Muslim population not only requires a willing partner....
Wait, they're muslim, who says they have to be willing?
What a cult.
I never hear them complain. The media will talk to as many Iraqis as they have to until they find one who will gripe and that's the guy who gets quoted.
These people live with hardships we can't imagine and yet, they tend to be very cheerful, warm people with their senses of humor intact. They walk around singing, they cut up with their friends and smiles seem to be their natural demeanor.
I admire their courage and spirit.
I don't get it...Whats wrong with rensing her mouth with cold water?
Repairing the electrical grid takes time new poles to set and new lines to run. Not all of N O has power back and it is very small area. Also no one is shooting at the guys fixing it in N O.
Two things: AFP is French, so not surprising they're hung up on Iraqi sex life. And the problem in Iraq IS a lack of desire, not power - no one can rationally blame cold water.
Do you have to wash after sex? Yup. Jews have the same rules, and so would Christians if they followed Old Testament teachings. Here's the verse, from Leviticus 15:
18 The woman also with whom man shall lie with seed of copulation, they shall both BATHE themselves in water, and be unclean until the even.
One cannot pray or enter the temple while unclean. So, this is not all that surprising, is it?
All I can say is, thank God for Jesus. We are free from the curse of the law!
"All I can say is, thank God for Jesus. We are free from the curse of the law!"
OK. I was just pointing out that this teaching is not confined to Islam. Still, if I were a Christian, I do not believe I would go to church funky from sexual activity. But, that's just me.
Good. Maybe their frustration will turn into anger and action at the terrorists that disrupt power. Victory through sexual frustration...
These people can't even pray after sex! Now that's just stupid. Like God didn't invent the whole thing in the first place?
No, it's not a boombox, it's a bangbox.
