Looks like the Iraqi police cannot protect themselves. Eighteen police officers died – eighteen! – when a police station – a police station! – was attacked.

But, as Tom Friedman says, where some see lemon, others see lemonade. The good news is that at least some business is thriving in Iraq: terrorism insurance. Now there’s a racket…sorry, career with a bright future.
