Iraq Thanks Russia for Moral Support

BAGHDAD, March 26. Iraq expresses its enormous gratitude to Russia for its attempts to help the Iraqi people at a difficult time, the Iraqi government has announced. 'Our Russian friends are trying to end this senseless war by raising the matter at the UN Security Council,' said Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed al-Sahhaf.

The Iraqi authorities have once again repeated that Russia has never supplied Iraq with high-precision military equipment. 'This is a lie invented by the US in order to blacken the reputations of Iraq and Russia,' said the minister.

Look out kids. Could Iraq be thinking that it can start trouble between the US and Russia? It's like watching the tactics of a small child.

Russia's Foreign Minister: "I told you, don't ever call me here. What did I tell you before?"

Iraqi Foreign Minister: "We don't know each other."

"That's right, we don't know each other."

"Can we get some more tanks?"

"Mention Russia again on television, you little creep, and I'll see to it that every T-72 we have will be in Iraq by the weekend."
