Redhawk...thanks for putting this site up, great article and photos. Never got to fish in Iraq, did manage to fish in Saudi both tours. The guy in charge of the Riyadh zoo would call the base commander when the tilapia needed thinning out in their huge open "tank" and we'd gladly oblige! The Phillipinos working there were prohibited from catching them by Saudi rules, but we could, and always gave them to them. You've got to find pleasure and comfort whereever and however you can...
