Default why would you backpack through IRAQ?

According to the news Click Link here the most recently decapitated guy was back packing???

What the PHUCK would make you want to try backpacking in Iraq? You have to feel awful for his family, but why would anyone be that dumb?

I cannot even think of a worse place to attempt to backpack! Maybe Antarctica would be dumber?

He's not the first... one guy went right after the war "ended". He made it out okay. Iraq is rich with archwological treasures... there are tons of people waiting for it to be safe so they can go.

I laughed out loud on that one. Funny how Steven pointed it out.
