This just in:
My name is [withheld]. I work at a Morale, Welfare and Recreation Center in an undisclosed location near Baghdad International Airport. Becuase I work with Iraqis as well as Coaltion forces, I can't take pictures of our fingers for safety's sake.
However, I do want to tell you that the grins on the faces of the Iraqi soldiers have looked like they fell in love, won the lotto, got married, and had a baby all in one day. They have been so touched by Americans dyeing their fingers that they have just been beside themselves.
I thank God for giving you such a simple and yet powerful gesture to strike with love the hearts of the brave Iraqi people who have defied death three times in one year to vote.
Blessings upon all of you.
