I will allow a bit of casual reporting since most Americans do not know where Nevada is....

You're 100% correct as usual. I was checking into a different time for some reason.

You need to go on Jeopardy and demand all history related questions. I doubt anyone in the U.S. could beat you. :)

Mongolia’s soldiers in Iraq serve within the Polish-led division and their work is confined largely to construction and logistics outside the town of Hilla. The last Mongolian forces to go to Iraq, led by a grandson of Genghis Khan in 1258, sacked Baghdad and killed an estimated 800,000 people.

Hey Islam, I've got bad news and worse news. The bad news is that King Jan Sobieski's guys are back. The worse news is they've got the Mongols with them. ;)

Thanks for the photo of W and the Mongolian Warrior. I can just make out the horses in the backgroud. Imagine what would happen if they had a thousand Bradleys .....oooooch!

I am sure China is watching this friendship with some trepedation!Texas cowboys and Mongolians will get along just fine! This is a one up on China Diplomacy! The Mongolians have a very healthy disrespect for the Han Chinese after what China has done to Tibet.
