Iraq
New Tactics
2006-11-03
Tonight, we went out on another mission, a short one, to clear part of one of the main routes between here and all the other military bases in Iraq. Coming back, we had a bomb explode near us. However, this was no ordinary bomb. This one was a shell strapped to what appeared to be a roller skate, and it got pulled across the road in front of us. Apparently, the bad guys have been watching too many old cartoons, and called Acme with an order for bombs. My truck has now earned the nickname "Roadrunner", for having survived an attack by Wily E. Coyote.

#3  Next thing you know, jihadis will attack US convoys by rushing down hills slopes, skiing on ice spewed in front of them by a refrigerator tied to their back...

#2  You don't think they pulled it themselves do you? They are to holy for that.

The Lions of Islam probably got some poor kid to pull it for them.
