Five years in the making

Seems like just yesterday that our boys stormed into Baghdad, guns blazing, and liberated those ungrateful fucks, the Iraqis. Today, of course, they're 'celebrating' with a curfew and a ban on vehicles. Sadr City, the Shi'a neighborhood, keeps flinging mortar shells to prove they're mean and bad and religious. (Whatever happened to the anti-mortar radar we're supposed to have? Maybe that's why they're only firing three shells, to avoid the counterbattery fire.)

Rico says they're still better off than they were under Saddam, even if they won't admit it...
