Thanks to Celissa  for this.

U.S. MARINES
A large group of Iraqi soldiers are moving down a road when they hear a
voice call from behind a sand dune:

"One United States Marine is better than ten Iraqis."

The Iraqi commander quickly sends ten of this best soldiers over the dune,
whereupon a gun battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then
silence.

The voice then calls out:

"One United States Marine is better than one hundred Iraqis!"

Furious, the Iraqi commander sends his next best 100 troops over thedune and instantly a
huge firefight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again silence.

The American voice calls out again: "One United States Marine is better than
one thousand Iraqis!"

The enraged Iraqi commander musters one thousand fighters and sends them across the dune. Cannons, rockets and machine guns
ring out as a huge battle is fought. Then silence.

Eventually one wounded Iraqi soldier crawls back over the dune and with his
dying breath tells his commander:

"Don't send anymore men! It's a trap!
There's TWO of them!"

Sooo. A young American soldier serving in Iraq goes to his sarge and says, "I'm having a hard time distinguishing between friendly and enemy Iraqi's".

The sarge tells him, "The thing to do is yell 'Saddam is the devil' and watch their response".

So a couple of weeks later the Sarge is visiting the medical unit and sees the same young troop all wrapped in gauze and casts. The sarge asks what happenned, and the troop says "I did what you told me. I saw a lone Iraqi walking down the road and I yelled 'Saddam is the Devil!'. He yelled back 'George Bush is Satan and evil incarnate'."

The sarge says, "So then you really got into it, eh?"

"No. We were hit by a truck as we shook hands in the middle of the road!"

This joke reincarnated from the 60's, when the objects of derision were LBJ and Uncle Ho.
