1. I thought the govt of Iraq was our ally?
We're only there to fight the "terrorist insurgents".

3. I can't quite make out the "WARNING"...is it "Not to be used for
diplomatic purposes"?

6. The funny part is, this was the only bag with these flags.
Every other one had some combination of made up flags with the odd US flag tossed in.

9. It´s a sad day in the neighborhood
when the same adults who proclaim "peace" purchase plastic symbols of "war".

11. Uh, about that flag...
Does Iraq have Allah's name on its flag? Wasn't there a flap earlier this year over soccer balls that featured Iraq's flag, and subsequently Allah's name, on them? Hopefully, the writing on the flag translates to "IRRESISTIBLE."

13. LOL again. The Iraqi flag is a reasonably dead on reproduction.
Significantly better then the US flag.

18. All that is missing for my right wing neighbors....
are the burka's, the shemagh's and the camels. They would have bought the entire supply.

19. time to do the right thing and
tape little papers on their backs saying "Bring me home". Leave them in different places like gas stations, restaraunt bathrooms, newspaper racks and wherever you think to put them.

We did this two years ago along with the flags of * that were placed in piles of dog shit.
