Thread Name: BS: Monitoring IRAQ elections
Subject: BS: Monitoring IRAQ elections
A couple of years ago I monitered some elections in Georgia (ex USSR)
It was a strange experiance what with armed gangs roaming the area, bombs going off in the capital and having my set of ex-spetnaz bodygaurds(so they said over a bottle of scotch) There was a possiblity that I could have gone to Iraq but I turned it down. While I enjoyed the experience once Im not sure I should repeat it(my wife worries) Anyone got any views, experiences or know of any one else that has done this sort of thing. Cllr
