1-900-BAGHDAD
This little ditty happened to cross my visual path during my travels:
Well well well – how brilliant is this little notion? Not only are the mighty superpowers going to rescue the little Middle Eastern countries from their perceived debauchery; we are going to provide them with our brand of it free of charge!
Oooh - what I would have given to have been in the war room when this bulletin came across the wire.
“It certainly was not part of Britain's plans to win the hearts and minds of the people of Iraq. But the Foreign Office has been apparently paying for an adult sex chat line in a Baghdad street for 17 months without knowing it.”
Friggin’ lovely! Although I doubt that it’s the hearts and minds that are at work here. This is much more entertaining, and a little lower, anatomically speaking of course.
… An investigation into how a diplomat lost two satellite phones in Iraq has nothing to do with terrorism but more to do with a budding entrepreneur and a telephone porn network…All the pattern of usage of these phones ... points to some kind of criminal activity ... It was almost as though they were taken and used as a kind of mobile phone booth at the end of the street where anybody could come along and use them.
Ugh – public rub and tugs! Does that mean the soldier patrols would actually be protecting the “piece”? No wonder the war keeps dragging on - everyone has been looking for the wrong terrorist cells!! Can't you just see this now?

“Hello?”
“Hello, who is this?”
“This is Illegal Invasion speaking…who is this?”
“Uh…this is Big Baghdaddy...”
"It appears that they haven't been able to find the culprit or trace the phone. You would have thought having spent hundreds of millions of pounds setting up a sophisticated listening centre, it would be very easy to trace a satellite phone and who was operating it in Iraq. But it doesn't appear anything was done. It just [appears] that the [government] kept paying the bills."
Ha ha ha ha - *sigh* …they kept paying the bills for 17 months; of course they may have been wondering if the diplomat’s lower appendage was going to fall off pretty soon. And I use the term “lower” in the loosest context possible. And of course hundreds of pounds in sophisicated equipment was totally worth the investment. Who knows? Maybe they taped the transcripts and will sell the recordings on EBay: "New item: For your illicit listening pleasure ~ the Department of Defense is proud to offer the complete collection of "Backalley Baghdad"...
Gives a whole new meaning to being debriefed now doesn’t it?

ahhh...
The sweet incompetency of the allied invasion forces.
This is just the kind of bizarre oversight I like to see my hard earned taxes spent on.
It's nice to know a small portion of my wage is helping Iraqi sex fiends discharge in a darkened booth somewhere.
So (pant, pant) what color Burqa are you wearing?
Funny info. I had not heard of it before you blog. Thanks.
and a whole new, underground movement? aboveground movement? gyrating and screaming movement? is born.
i guess if you can't beat them, just drag them down to your level ;)
joe: funny stuff, funny stuff.
Ultra: Yeah, not exactly what you want your taxes going towards. (It was 212,000 pounds one month alone)
One the flip side - at least you know your helping to spread the...um...love?
Joe: Ha ha ha ha ha - black.
Leesa: Welcome, and thanks for the compliment. (Big fan of your work by the way)
Messiah: I think the visual of any movement as far as this goes is unappealing. I think the allied forces know all too well about "Bringing 'em up and Dragging 'em down".
In every way possible.
Hmm, interesting. I wonder if they were for the troops or if "we" are no exporting our perversions as well.
Interesting how sex and violence are the only two things that manage to get everywhere.
By the sounds of the report - the troops weren't even aware of the phones. Ooo - could you imagine those phone bills if they did know?
That's beauty of sex and violence; they sell - and do so in a BIG way(no pun intended). I think that the two are interrelated and dependent on one another to maintain control of us. Are lives revolve around some form of both at all times...
I need my Okami fix. I'll give you a dollar (U.S.) if you post something in the next day or so. ;-)
Done and Done...
I totally agree. In fact, while everyone has made a point of citing our sexual repression, I think our other repression is violence. They are the two sensual intimacies of the body and what we most awkwardly try to discipline. Civilization goes in funny places.

I like that Xray ~ well phrased. In many cases sex and violence build off of one another; suppressing one often escalates the other. Seems natural for warfare and sexual urge to co-exist doesn't it?
