Well, it's amazing how humor can be a perfect weapon against oppression and authoritarianism. This is something that global history has proven several times; where satire defeated the might of many autocratic regimes. Kudos to Ahmed Albasheer for bravely standing up to corrupt regimes in Iraq to use humor as a protest tool of choice.
