If Chuck Norris went to Iraq, why isn’t the war over? Because while Chuck could end it with one round house kick, he felt it would be disrespectful to rob our military of their victory. He did have some comments on what he witnessed while in the country:
One of the officers began to speak in Arabic to me, smiling and holding his hand up to his mouth and biting as if he were inviting us to dinner. The interpreter told us what the Iraqi officer was trying to convey to me with his hand motions. In the movie “Mission in Action,” he wanted to know, “Was that a real rat you had in your mouth?” I told him, “It was a real rat!” It was a scene in which a bag is placed over my head with a rat in the bag and I am hung upside down by my ankles with a rope. I finally killed the rat with my teeth. We all began to laugh hysterically when we saw the disgusted look upon his face, realizing I had put a real rat in my mouth!
It truly was an awe inspiring event to see large groups of Iraqis and Americans enjoying one another and even laughing together… in a war zone!
Now admit it: you never, in your wildest delusions, saw “Missing in Action” as a way to build bridges in Iraq.
Chuck Norris: International Statesman.
(I realize it was Missing in Action 2, but I am not going to correct Chuck Norris.)
