Protons bound for Iraq

A snippet from todays news:

"Malaysian carmaker Proton is planning to send 5,000 1.5 litre cars to Iraq in August. That's if any of Iraq remains of course... "

What exactly did the Iraqui people do to deserve this atrocity?
Surely this sort of thing should be banned by the geneva convention?

Malaysian carmaker Proton is planning to send 5,000 1.5 litre cars to Iraq in August.

Who paid for them then Lemming - just curious.. Is it the US ensuring that it's got cheap transport for foreign aid workers once it's cleared out the country of ar- I mean Saddam. Or is Saddam launching a government sponsored company car scheme to keep his popularity up at home...

(as for the pork scratchings I think most Iraqi inhabitants would be glad of the extra grub given the current sanctions apache!!!!!!)

Send them the Lada's, Daewoooos, Kia's as well as all the junky sheds on the road.

Britain's doing its bit - it's sending tanks that stop working in the desert, rifles that jam after one orund and soldiers who have spent more time recently training to fight fires rather than the Republiocan Guard - the iraqi people will be overjoyed.
