Iraq for sale on Ebay
un | 30.08.2003 14:06
SOMEONE WHO CLAIMS to own Iraq is claiming to be selling it on Ebay.
The bids have so far reached $1,852, and the vendor "will only accept cash".
He describes himself as needing to sell Iraq because "he has to win an election in 2004, and Iraq is a drag in the opinion polls."
He also "forgot to tell the American people the true cost before invasion and occupation".
The buyer will have to look after and feed 25 million people, with the infrastructure "shot to hell" by the previous owner.
