‘Cuss in English/ Army
In Iraq Officially Told
WASHINGTON.—The old Ameri-
can pastime of learning to cuss in
foreign languages is taboo for Unit-
ed States soldiers in Iraq who have
been admonished to avoid insulting
the Moslems by doing their swear-
ing in English.
“Avoid the native oaths,” declares
a handbook distributed to our troops
in Iraq. “You will not know their
exact meaning and they may get
you into trouble.
“Don’t under any circumstances
call an Iraq a ‘dog,’ a ‘devil,’ a ‘na-
tive,’ or a ‘heathen.’ These terms
are all deadly insults to him.”
