Iraqi Confrontation

[Hedgehog]

A platoon of soldiers was patrolling north of Fallujah when they came upon
an Iraqi terrorist, badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite side of
the road was a British soldier in a similar but less serious state.

The soldier was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to both men,
the Platoon Leader asked the injured soldier what had happened.

The soldier reported, 'I was heavily armed and moving north along the
highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent.'We saw each
other and both took cover in the ditches along the road.

I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife scum bag who
got what he deserved.

He yelled back that Gordon Brown is a bureaucratic, good-for-nothing, left
wing labour dickhead who knows bugger all about running a country.'

'So I said that Osama Bin Laden dresses and acts like a frigid,
mean-spirited lesbian!'

He retaliated by yelling, 'Oh yeah? Well, so does Peter Mandelson'

'And, there we were, in the middle of the road, laughing, shaking hands,
when a bloody truck hit us.'
