messopotamia 

Share definition Flag
A play on words (created by one Jon Stewart) which serves on The Daily Show as a reoccuring update on the War in Iraq. The term originates from the word mesopotamia, an ancient region of Iraq. The area was the home of numerous early civilizations and declined in importance after Mongol invaders destroyed its extensive irrigation system.

Other variation: mess-o-potamia, mess o'potamia

Mesopotamia 

Share definition Flag
from the Greek "meso" meaning "middle" or "between", and "potamos" meaning "river", Mesopotamia refers to the ancient land straddling the Tigris and Euphrates, currently more or less the site of a completely artificial nation called Iraq, which was cobbled together by the Frogs and the Limies in 1919 out of a few odd Ottoman provinces.

There's a lot of oil there, but no weapons of mass destruction.

And making cracks in the ground
But there's nowhere else to stand
In Mesopotamia (No one's ever seen us)
