a toilet for the invaders

""It does disgust us that this used to be a toilet for the invaders," said Ismail, 34, who lost his home, as well as two brothers, in the 2004 battle between Marines and insurgents for control of Fallouja. "But we didn't have any other option. It's the best we could afford." As U.S. troops accelerate their withdrawal from Iraq, the military is offloading thousands of tons of unwanted junk accumulated during seven years in the country by selling it to dealers."
