Earlier this week, the Iraqi parliament came back together after two major blocs ended their petty boycotts and returned to the business of rebuilding their country. What’s next on the agenda? Summer vacation! Yep, while the U.S. military are fighting and dying, the Iraqi government is taking a month-long recess.
Mahmoud Othman, a Kurdish lawmaker, offered this explanation:
“We decided to take the vacation, and we insisted on taking a vacation because the U.S. administration has put high pressure on us, interfering with our business and treating us as servants, not as parliament members.”
Someone call for the “WAAAmbulance”! Maybe if you start behaving as leaders, you’ll be treated as such!
Idiots!
