Many residents of the southern city of Basra have convinced themselves that the British Army has loosed savage cattle-eating badgers onto its unsuspecting populace as a final gesture of ill intent before it departs the city later this summer.Throw in, for good measure, the fervent belief that British soldiers have planted snake eggs in waterways and unleashed bomb-sniffing dogs purposefully infected with rabies.
Then two words popped in to my head.
Art Bell.
I'm not dismissing this out of hand, mind you, and neither are my sources in the CIA. As a matter of fact, they've re-tasked their rodent resources to deal with this threat to Iraq's stability. Pesky British, I haven't trusted them since the 1700s, and I'm glad to see we won't allow such despicable behaviour.
Badgers? We don't need no steenking badgers
