U.S. veteran offers solution to Iraq war on eBay
By DAVID SCHOETZ
July 17, 2007
An American veteran who claims to have participated in more than 300 combat operations in both Iraq wars — and who has grown frustrated with the current war's direction — offered a five-page "solution" to ending the U.S. occupation of Iraq — on eBay.

"I am offering the winning bidder the solution to the war in Iraq," the eBayer — identified by the New York Post as 38-year-old Army Capt. Thad Krasnesky, now stationed at Fort Hamilton in Brooklyn, N.Y. — wrote in his item description"This is not a flippant or facetious offer," the listing continued. "There will be no joke forwarded to you if you are the winning bidder. If you are the high bidder, I will send you a viable solution to the conflict in which we are currently engaged."

2. $99,999,999?
The bidding got up that high? Someone from the White House must have really wanted it.
