Some Iraqi refugees have been providing food to the Marines. I particularly liked this little bit of understatement:

Khairi Ilrekibi, 35, a passenger on one of the buses, which broke down near the marine position, said he could speak for the 20 others on board.

In broken English he told a correspondent travelling with the marines: "We like Americans," adding that no one liked Saddam Hussein because "he was not kind."

Rand, got URL?

Thanks.

Now, let's just hope that food wasn't laced with some kind of delayed-effect poison.

That's the problem with dealing with a bad guy like Saddam--you tend to get paranoid, which is just what he wants.

Did Khairi say "was"?
