Iraq: T-Minus 4

T stands for toy today. Toy guns. Little kids walking around with fairly real looking handguns, from a distance. The oldest of the bunch, in the orange shirt, walked around in a more casual way, but the little ones even had the celebratory dance down. They must have seen and learned this from gatherings such as weddings, or sporting events, where celebratory firing of weapons into the air is common. This is what I like to think. Still could give one a chill to see Iraqi kids going through these motions with toys.
