Friends of George*
-Hey we ALMOST finished it. The wrong toilets came. None of our fittings work.
-So, what did you do?
-We installed ‘em! What else?
-So you shit into a...?
-Container really.
-Even the Iraqis’ll wise up when they overflow with crap.
-Hey! They used to shit in ditches. We’re improving their lives.
*A lot of money was wasted on phantom reconstruction projects in Iraq left
incomplete because of poor contractor performance. In other words,
US tax payers made an involuntary contribution to Friends of George, which
would be a good way of summing up the Iraq occupation in general. -Juan Cole
