Iraq
Taxi customized by Abrams - Chopping and Channeling gaining popularity in Iraq
2008-05-20
Hello boss, this is Haji. I'm going to be late for work again and so is Muji. Since my car's paint job was vandalized last week I've borrowed a taxi.

As you know Muji and I are carpooling. I stopped at Muji's house to pick him up but he wasn't ready yet. He's trying out his new Al Sadr teeth browning kit.

I parked the taxi and went inside to wait for Muji's. While we were in Muji's house those sneaky Infidels scratched the paint job on the borrowed taxi and now I have to get it fixed. They used a similar instrument to the one they used on my car last week.

#9  The tank stopped behind the car, then accellerated over it and stopped again.

That looks to me like they wanted to make sure there wasn't an IED in the car, either it would go off under the tank, or be crushed and disabled, I doubt any Homemade IED would scratch an Abrams.

#8  Man! The US Military is REALLY rough on people who park illegally! Guess I'd better watch my "P"s and "Q"s the next time I go to Carson...

#6  You don't leave their equipment but you could sell the car to pay for something. I mean if you're gonna crush them then get a bunch of them together in a line and make a show of it. Charge admission to the Jihadi car smash. Let Iraqi's smash out the windshields first for a tiny fee and take out their frustrations because the Jihadi have killed a lot of Iraqi's. When that is done then the Abrams runs over the whole lot, and then again and again.

Monster truck show Baghdad style.

#4  Video said it was the enemy's (recently deceased I assume) car. You don't leave the enemy's equipment in working order to be used again.
