so iraq beat south korea in the asia cup...
normally I'd be pissed as hell, but when i heard that this victory (first time the country has advanced to the finals) lifted the spirts of the otherwise w-fucked Irag public, I didn't feel so bad... I didn't even feel bad when they accidently killed 3 people (wounded 19) when they were letting off victory shots from their russian rifles...

I'm actually rooting for them now. people were reported to be celebrating in the streets etc... good for them... however, some crazy Iraqis had to go ruin the celebration and ignite bombs in the celebrations... over 50 dead, over 150 hurt... i don't normally comment on political issues, but this is RUTHLESS and just fucked in general... I blame the W...
