    Smoking a cigarette was a crime that could earn 20 lashes when ISIS ruled northern Iraq. Now it’s a sign of freedom.http://nyti.ms/2ozZ1a3

        How progressive are their marijuana laws? How many people took part in ISIS Earth Day marches? What is their healthcare plan?

        There are American states that still give years of prison time for smoking a joint. Is that different?

        Good. Maybe these terrorists will die of lung cancer. We could lace their cigarettes with Prozac 2 see if their unhappy attitudes improve?

        If I had opposable thumbs, I might give the whole "smoke up for freedom" thing a try.

        The lack of logic around this is astounding! "I'm putting myself at greatly increased risk of lung cancer. Take that, ISIS!"

        People who have never been to Iraq will never understand how smoking is a part of the culture in the region, tea and cigarettes are a must
