Second Hand Silva

Silva Shahakian, an Iraqi Christian, has accepted the honor of being Miss Iraq in spite of death threats against her predecessor. The Miss Iraq beauty contest held April 9 originally named a different contestant as the winner. Tamar Goregian the first Miss Iraq returned the "crown" four days after being threatened by Islamic militias. The new winner's whereabouts are unknown.


It seems like the militias would appreciate pretty women. I mean just look at some of those pictures of Iraqi women! Not what I'd call centerfold material. I'm just sayin'.
