I agree about the quality of the photo, but the author fails to mention 
that we, the liberators of Kuwait, encouraged the  uprising by the 
Marsh Arabs of southern Iraq with promises that we never fulfilled.

Sorry to be a wet blanket.... on the plus side, the re-flooding of the 
marshes does indeed seem to be one of the success stories of last 
year's adventure.
