So the problems in Iraq seem to building everyday. Roadside bombs, RPG attacks, infastructure sabbatoge, you name it it seems to be happening daily. Well in the proccess of watching all the depressing news on CNN and the like one thing jumped out at me. Everytime something bad happens the Iraqis gather in the streets to chant in unison. As the problems have spread their rallys have become more organized. Flags or popping up, everyone is sporting the same color shirt, ect. It all looked so familar in an odd way to me but i couldnt quite place it. Then it hit me.
These people are crying out for enterrainment. They look like they are at a Metalica concert for christs sake. If I photoshopped a concert stage behind the crowd it looks just like an early 90's mosh pit on the streets of Baghdad. Why the hell dont we organize some damn soccer turnaments, arab popstars exist to the best of my knowledge get them a freaking stage pronto. These people have nothing else to do besides flock to the streets and hate on the good old USA. Shouldnt we at least give them a choice, John Tesh Live from Tikrit sounds like a winner to me.
