BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Starved of entertainment in their violence-racked city, many Baghdad residents are turning to food as one of their few remaining pleasures, and paying the price as they pile on the pounds.

Supposedly, Iraqis are now more scared than ever leaving their homes for risk of getting killed, instead staying in their safety of their homes, watching cable -TV. Cable TV IN Iraq is post Saddam. Another beautiful example of America spreading democracy. What's next? Airdrop diet pills, and Weight watchers pamphlet.

Of course, it's Bush's fault.

His program of force feeding the Iraqi civilians it to blame.

Where are the videos of soldiers stuffing food into the mouths of innocent Iraqi's ?

I bet the army makes them form naked pyramids and then eat.

It's just disgusting the lengths to which our military will go to poor helpless civilians.

I dont know what the current situation is in Iraq, but how long you think before downtown Baghdad looks like Anytown USA? I like differences in culture and not being bombarded with McDonalds, Starbucks and other healthy US offerings no matter what country im visiting.

My point you ask. Many European nations now have followed the US in its never ending quest to be the fattest and most disgusting people in the world, after being forcefed this crap you call food over here.

You can blame on Bush for getting Europeans fat as well.

That is very true, as I noted on the above post. I'm all for democracy, im NOT for mini Americas spread around the globe.

Heh, I was just thinking "Must have been Bush's fault" would make a nice one too


I got in an argument with my Aunt this last weekend, she seems to think everything wrong with the world is solely due to GW.

People are being slaughtered in the streets, there is no identifiable Iraqi authority in most places... and someone is focusing on weight problems?

Um... can't the issues of "whats the best diet" wait until after the murdering is over?
