Remember, folks - victory in Iraq isn't complete until Robert Fisk gets the sh*t beaten out of him by the people he claims to be sticking up for...

That was the old Iraqi flag from before Saddam's regime came into power.

Yeah. When Bluto was swinging that sledge I could almost hear that song "Big Bad John".

That statue looks VERY heavy, hope it doesn't collapse the boom when it drops.

They just took off the Iraqi flag. It wouldn't have worked to have the flag up on a toppling statue! It would have symbolised the fall of Iraq instead of the fall of the statue!

I remember reading Agawa's bio of Yamamoto. In it, he said, "Considering I oppsoed the wear,
I should have resigned..."
I do not have the page cite handy right now - I will get it later. History shows that he did not take the course of action he felt he should have taken, and for that, I believe he has a share of the moral culpability in the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.
