1. One of the first things I remember learning about Iraqis. . . |
|
was from back during the Iraq/Iran War in the '80s. I remember reading how both sides in that sad conflict took 12 and 14 year old boys and put them in the field between their armies before the start of any offensive. The young boys task was to clear the field of mines. . .
It could have been propoganda. I didn't read it too close in those days. My interests were elsewhere. But I think about that image a lot these days and what it may bode for our future in Iraq. . .
