#2 This must be a lie! Madeline 'Fat Pig' Albright has told me that we are alone in Iraq. CNN harps daily on the fact that we don't have international support. So how could there be Dutch troops in Iraq???

I am sooo confused...

#3 Madeline "Thighs" Halfwit and Hillary "Calves" Witchcraft both said that we are in there alone. Both want that organization that spells credibility...the UN, to go to Iraq and get the job done. What maroons. (Perhaps they didn't get the news that the UN ran away.)

#4 Ship, right on. They are very good. Only about 2,200 of them altogether. I had a Dutch exchange officer I became pretty good friends w/when I was w/the 8th Marines. Did close combat school w/him. Very similar to the British Royal Marines. Those guys are awesome to. They won't f*ck around w/any beligerent Iraqis. NATO needs to get real on board w/OIF. In the future they'll need us and our memories will be long about who came to bat (Italians, Spaniards, Dutchmen, & our Brit cousins) & who didn't (Germans, insert Frenchie joke here, & the Belgians - btw Anniversary of Battle of the Bulge is in two weeks).
