Iraq troops finally standing up! Rip live bunny rabbit apart and eat it raw!

[HamdenRice]

As George W. Bush often says, our troops will stand down when the Iraqi troops "stand up."

In a proud display of their ability to "stand up", American trained Iraqi security forces demonstrated that they could defeat a small, but very much alive bunny rabbit, by ripping it to shreds, eating its heart, and sharing out its still warm but raw meat:

NAJAF, Iraq - U.S. forces ceded control of southern Najaf province to Iraqi police and soldiers, who marked the occasion Wednesday with a parade and martial arts demonstrations. But doubts remain about whether the Iraqis, vulnerable to insurgent attacks and militia infiltration, can handle security in more volatile provinces anytime soon.

About 1,500 police officers, soldiers and security personnel staged a parade around an infield of stubby brown grass, in festivities complete with warriors on horseback.

At one point, a small group of soldiers stepped forward with a live rabbit and tore it to pieces. The leader bit out the heart with a yell, then passed around the blood-soaked remains to his comrades, each of whom took a bite. The group also bit the heads off frogs, as some of those in the crowd held their noses from the stench.

Chewing on live animals is a traditional display of ferocity for elite troops in Iraq and was also observed by special units during Saddam Hussein's rule.

So, in the event that the insurgency should be composed of small furry animals, they won't have a chance against Iraq's American trained security forces.
