You didn't know ... here goes:
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - There was a bit of
unfinished business left over in Baghdad from the 1991 Gulf War. The U.S. Army has taken care of it.
At the Al-Rashid Hotel, President Bush the elder - father of the current American chief executive who ordered this year's invasion of Iraq - is a doormat no more.
U.S. soldiers visited the battered Al-Rashid on Thursday night wielding hammers and chisels, and
dug out the intricate tile mosaic of the former president that was used for years as a state-sponsored insult.
In its place, they laid a portrait of
Saddam Hussein.
That cost 3000 + dead american soldiers, 20 000 + mutilated one and 500 000 + iraqi deaths....
