Some government leaders keep saying that we will have a post war "Marshall Plan" for Iraq just like we did in Japan and Europe. I guess the true litmus test for if it is a success will be when there are McDonalds on every street corner throughout Iraq.

"I'll have the McLambshank sandwich and a side of fried eggpant and a MacKatayef desert"

"That will be 2 dinars please, drive your donkey cart up to the next window";)

Fried eggplant is scrumpdiliicous!

Whack them up like big fries, lightly batter and fry. Good with ranch, probably good with marinara.

It's kind of comforting to see McDonald's defaced in such a way.
