Instruments of moustache detection



Instruments of moustache detection - now this is a really old one, it predates the Iraq war. The myopia is still all too real.

An interesting thing is the way Saddam turned the whole Iraqi army into body doubles, certainly the officer corps, through their desire to not stand out, which led them all to wear his moustache.

When I look at pics of Saudis it's amazing how many princelings wear the recently dead King Fahd's weird wedgie beard. Now there's a death that's hardly been reported, given the pivotal importance of this event. Still, when big oil and energy own government, the media and military, nothing surprises when events go unreported
