Iraqis getting tattoos so next of kin can identify their corpses.
Thank you so much for spreading democracy,Mr. Bush.


So great is the risk of being killed in tit-for-tat violence that Iraqi tattoo parlours are offering "death tags", showing names and next of kin. Such inkings are a safeguard against ending up among the countless -unidentified bodies in Baghdad's morgue.

1. rape, torture, murder, invasions, occupations,
"the decider" (dictator wannabe) has ruined America's reputation for many generations to come.

Not to mention the half million or so dead.

The world used to love, admire & respect us.

Used to.

Before bush.
