Two women met in a Baghdad cafe, they began chatting over an ice cold glass of camels milk.

The first women informed her friend that one month ago her oldest son became a martyr.

Oh dears and other sympathetic noises from the friend.

The first woman went on to tell how her second son, mehmet became a martyr only last week.

Mehmet with the beautifull eyes, oh that's awfull replied her friend!

And worst of all, my youngest, achmed, yesterday, he too became a martyr, said the first wwoman as she burst into tears of anguish!

Her friend approached and enfolded her in her arms, " I know, I know" said the friend, "they blow up so young these days"!!
