Well, there are none of these around, so I figured that I'd write one. Sadly, it will be text only, as putting in pictures seems extremely complicated and extremely difficult for me :wacko: If anyone can find a really simple and easy way to post pictures, I'm all ears.

One note: Take what people say about Nazis in their German AARs, and put them here. I'm not a suicide bomber, and I don't support them. I'm not a terrorist, and I don't support them.

I'll get around to posting the first few months soon. This is my first AAR, so go easy on me.
 
Nice, don't see too many Iraqi AARs around - should be lots of fun rampaging in the Middle East :) . The actual mechanics of making a picture appear in your post is pretty easy - just hit the "IMG" button in the vb Code section above your text - and input the address of the pic. However, finding a site to host them can be tricky - I use comcast since they are my internet provider, you might want to see what your isp has in the way of support for that. Even if you opt not to do pictures well written AARs are fun to read too! :)
 
Does the site have to include hyperlinking? Because I found a free 100 MB site (yes 100MB) but I'm not sure if it supports hyperlinking. Also, I have no idea how to put screenshots or anything onto my webpage.
 
"Gentlemen, we are nothing." Hikmat Sulayman began the opening of his confrence in Baghdad with his Army and Air Ministers.
"None of my ministers have any sort of skills, they are all undistinguised suites." Hikmat declared.
"It isn't our fault that you refuse to accept foreign aid and training from any other country!" Salih Jabr, the Chief of the Army yelled, while slamming his hand on the table.
"That is because I do not wish to shame our glorious nation by showing our citizens that we need help from foreigners. Enough of this petty arguing, you will have plenty of oppurtunities to prove yourselves to me. On to buisness. King Ghazi has asked me what I plan to do with our powerful country in these dire times. I have no anwser for him, so that is why I called this conference together. You two men are my most trusted aides, all of my other ministers are worthless; you all have an equal knowledge of politics and government as you do of military action. You two men will have to start getting your noses in things besides our military. Politics and economy are your 2 main issues right now, until we go to war."
"War?!" cried Muhammad `Ali Jawad, Iraq's Chief of the Air department. "We have one squadron of air craft that is so old people have forgotten it's class!"
"That is what I expected you to say." Hikmat replied, still calm. "Which is why I ask of you on my opinion on this new plan. I suggest that we start on a major industrial expansion to boost Iraq's industrial capacity."
"Baghdad needs no improvements..." grumbled Salih.
"And half of our nation can't even improve, the conditions for it are nowhere near possible in our generation." noted Jawad.
"True, but the other portions of Iraq could use some serious boosting. We shall improve industrial capacity here to try and reach a level 5, if you will, on every area except for Baghdad and the unpopulated zones. We can then use these new industries to build a powerful infantry army, and later, a mighty air fleet."
"What about resources, Sulayman? We have nothing." Salih said.
"On the contrary, Jabr. We have something desired by every nation-Oil. We must use all of our oil to purchase other resources and maintain a stable economy. In the mean time, I want you two to think of possible military targets for us. Good night, gentlemen." Hikmat concluded. The two ministers, obviously angered by Hikmat's warmongering attitude, gathered up their papers and left the room.

Directlinking yes, or alternatively, which I know works for some geocity sites, rename the pics to .txt to fool the block :)
