   Look at the kid. He's acquired the taste of human blood. Now nothing short of a stake through the heart will quench his unholy thirst.

   Eh, we chop off large bits of our boys' penises. Everybody is whacked in some way.

     "WE"? Whaderya mean "WE", white man?
     MY boy is WHOLE.
     He's gonna scare the hell outta someone when he gets older (I hope).

     Is there some reason AP posted THIS shot instead of others where I'm sure the kids are screaming? I wonder.

       A very large percentage of american males are "cut", so it's fair to say that "we" as americans do that, even if you didn't or I wouldn't.

   Well, you know what they say... If you don't have a camel in Iraq, you ain't shiite.

     Jokes aside, they don't really have camels here. Sure, they exist. But horses and donkeys are far more common. You only see camels in the deep desert of the western part of the country, near Jordan. The center and left of the country is like the San Fernando valley.

    The kid seems remarkably mellow about this. Makes me feel kinda stupid about the yelping and sobbing I did when I got a splinter last week.

      ...with a gash in your head like that!

    Stupid culture. Now, if the kids were old enough to do it on their own, on their own decision, sure. But cutting a baby who has no clue what's going on? Fuck that.
