Iraqi
soldiers rush to place orders

"We
can only assume the worse" told U.S. General
Richard Mortel. "Our military budget cannot
once again absorb the cost of housing thousands
of surrendering Iraqi soldiers."
In
a report released to the press following the Gulf
War, the average cost of housing one Iraqi soldier
was near $300 a day. Food, clothing, housing,
counseling, tennis lessons, can add up fast at
a time of war.
The
bulk flag orders have be traced to a small sweatshop
in Haiti. U.S. Officials are attempting to contact
Kathy Lee Gifford to stop the sale.
