@Two_B: as someone that enjoys the subject of history I feel I remember a lot of things most people don't. Inversely I have no idea what most people are talking about these days.

I feel the same. If you were to spark up a conversation about what the government is doing or what's going on with celebrities... I'd be sitting here slack jawed.

But I could tell you about how insane the battle of Majnoon was.

Also if you've never heard of the battle of majnoon. You should look it up.

Here's an article from a journalist who was reporting on the battle.

Wild stuff. It's the kind of thing that would make an evil mastermind second guess his line of work.

War is hell. They'd likely argue that their lack of materiel compared to Western armies like the US necessitated such tactics. (Not that I'm trying to justify them, of course.) There's so many horrible deaths that come from war.
