Its no Bojangles’, but this is awesome nonetheless. KFC recently opened up a restaurant in Fallujah, Iraq. Who would want to commit their afternoon to suicide bombings or acts of terrorism when you can sit down and enjoy a cold Pepsi and the Colonel’s original 11 herbs and spices?

It would be kind of hard to say the surge hadn’t really worked or downplay the remarkable success of our troops if you can enjoy a meal of honey barbecue wings in the former terrorist stronghold. Maybe Barack Obama will stop by on his tour. Somehow I doubt it though, it doesn’t exactly jive with the defeatist message he wants to send.

Capitalism is a beautiful thing… especially when it comes with new found peace and a bucket of crispy fried chicken. Success never tasted so good.
