RL,
That plan backfired for the British in India, when the "insurgents" spread rumors among Muslim soldiers that the British used lard from pigs to grease their weapons, and spread rumors among indian soldiers that they were greased with cow fat. Considering we're trying to establish Iraqi security forces, I think that would blow up in our faces... Pergrino beat me to it.
