You want out of Iraq? This is how you do it

So, say you are an American soldier located in the quagmire that is now Iraq. You want out. You have been deployed too long without proper relief. You can no longer be diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder but instead be diagnosed with Adjustment Disorder, see here (what do you expect from an administration that skirted around the Genevea Convention by creating a new term, enemy combatant. Also, by diagnosing soldiers with AD instead of PTSD, they get denied long term benefits from the VA).

Well, your stuck basically in Iraq. Unless...you use the Quran as a target. Thats right, an American sniper used a copy of the Muslim holy book as a target. He was disciplined and then removed from Iraq and probably any other muslim country. Money quote, '
The U.S. military said Sunday that it had disciplined the sniper and removed him from Iraq after he was found to have used Islam's holy book for target practice May 9 in a predominantly Sunni area west of Baghdad.'

Nice. Spread the word.
