#5 From the article:

Two Iraqis were killed, and 17 others and two U.S. soldiers were reported wounded at the marketplace clashes outside Baghdad, as Iraqi rioters waved portraits of Saddam Hussein and shouted "Allahu Akbar!" - "God is great!"

Waving portraits of Saddam Hussein, huh? Somehow, I have my suspicions about this "riot". For instance, how many people were involved? The article doesn't say.

#6 Anyone waving around a portrait of Sadsack should be shot automatically. I'm sure that will cut down on the recidivism rate, and maybe bring a little bit of order to all this chaos.

#7 How many people really lug portraits of Sammy around and spontaneously whip them out when they meet Americans?

#8 Yelling Allahu Akbar. And bring back the guy who tied our hands and pitched us off tall buildings.
