I think you were stung on your subject matter (and possibly title) as opposed to any technical issue.

Flags, religious symbolism and guns generally don't score well at DPC as they are controversial.

Anyway, you're over in Iraq so there must be loads of interesting things to photograph locally that voters back home wouldn't usually see! :)

Coastal erosion must be a concern...

This is more like it. To be able to make a hotel corridor look interesting is something else!
