I smell a rat

AFP reports the death business is booming in Baghdad. Of course, it's only about one guy who makes coffins. He attributes his success to all the suicide bombers and IEDs. I guess when Saddam was killing people they went into mass graves without any coffins.

What other explanations could there be for his booming business? How about that people have more money to spend on such things? He's obviously a good promoter and a hard worker, but that wouldn't have anything to do with it, would it? Someone needs to check this out.
