#1 "The (Kurdish) tourist police in the area asked them not to climb the mountains because the Iranian border was very close," Ahmed said.

Next time, if there is to be one, listen to the police. Enjoy your confinement dumbshi*s.

#9 You have to laugh at how they are calling these 3 idiot college students "military infiltrators".

They deserve to have a 2000lb bomb dropped on Short Round's house just for that bullshit alone.

#10 Let's see - next stops on their "trip of fools" - hiking along the Line of Control in Kashmir; then a walkabout in Darfur; then a stroll through the DMZ in Korea.
