... we started by killing all of the Iraqis in our home countries. There are many valid reasons for this:

1. The overall cost is much lower than sending troops to Iraq
2. They are easily identifiable by their moustaches, even the men.
3. The human body contains a large percentage of useable oils and fats.
4. These people are going to attack us eventually unless we stop it now.
5. Saddam will have less of a reserve force to call upon.
6. We wont get drawn into a long war with the usual unexpected winter.

I am sure there are many more good reasons remember that like charity, xenophobia also begins at home
