Handover - It's a start!

I thought I would never see the day when we (US Troops) exited Viet Nam. And I have a little of the same feeling with Iraq.

The above picture seems a little crude (eating a live rabbit) but as some would say - "its cultural".

Here's the story: "Iraqi soldiers bit the heads off frogs and ate the heart of a rabbit as signs of courage on Wednesday at a ceremony to transfer Najaf province, home to one of Shi'ite Islam's holiest shrines, from U.S. to Iraqi control."

The lesson for the U.S. - "its harder leaving that it is entering". I hope this lesson is learned before our next war.
