Keep the Shiny side up


It's nice to know that some people in Iraq get it.

BAGHDAD (AP) - Students in Baghdad, where universities have been hard hit by violence, said Monday they were saddened by last week's massacre at Virginia Tech and hung up a banner to express their solidarity with "our brothers in humanity and in pursuing knowledge."

"We want to let the whole world know that we do not support terrorism anywhere," said Yassir Nazar, head of the student union at Baghdad Technology University, who organized the hanging of the banner near the campus gate.

Cho was exactly the kind of guy who becomes a suicide bomber.

I imagine that's a memorable thought in Iraq.
