Maybe, before they leave they can put up a Parking Lot?

Now, I'm sure that Baghdad was never exactly a paradise, but not since the Bastille was stormed has the march of freedom been so physically damaging:

Through TomDispatch comes this little nugget:

Baghdad is now the world’s least attractive city for expatriates. Its score has dropped from 30.5 last year to 14.5 due to ongoing concerns over security and the city’s precarious infrastructure. Other poor-scoring cities for overall quality of life include Bangui in the Central African Republic (28.5) and Brazzaville and Pointe Noire in Congo (29.5 and 33.5 respectively).


Good job George.
