Odd, I would have thought his neck was stronger
But it popped. Messy, that, and very poor PR.
I had the fine experience, I might add, of having my business car surrounded by angry demonstrators this afternoon (apparently of a neo-Salafi persuasion by the dress and scruffy appearances) protesting this event. I was not aware of the head-popping-off (which actually somewhat amuses me at some sick level, although clearly is a PR disaster all around) incident, but my first thought was "this poor sad bastards would have been on Sadaam's gallows, yet they're protesting for him. Useful idiots as the phrase goes."
Iraq, regardless, is become a positive carnival of incompetence all around.
However, the car getting stopped was not terribly encouraging.

Do you have any idea if whites are harrassed generally now? Seems to me that would be a natural development of events.

You just got caught up in a demonstration, then? I read it as if the demonstrators stopped it to have a go at you.
