US army officer puts 'solution to Iraq war' on eBay
US army officer puts 'solution to Iraq war' on eBay
Published: Monday July 16, 2007




Among the bootleg albums, second-hand golf clubs and bargain linens on Internet auction site eBay, lot 150141399174 is perhaps more likely to attract the attention of the Pentagon.

"A Solution to the War in Iraq," is being offered by a US Army intelligence officer fed up with the conflict and anxious to attract some attention to what he says is a viable and face-saving solution to the four-year-old conflict.

"I am offering the winning bidder the solution to the war in Iraq," the seller, identified as "cptnabil," says in the bid.

"This is not a flippant or facetious offer... If you are the high bidder, I will send you a viable solution to the conflict in which we are currently engaged," the seller wrote.

C'mon Cheney! I heard you paid more in taxes last year than your VP salary! Surely you can bid on this and win! And when you do, you can shoot this traitor to your unjust war!
