sharia

Earlier this week bush said womens rights were not being threatened by the negotiations in Baghdad. But clearly this new constitution that is trying to be built will send Iraqi woman back to darker times. Under saddam, Iraqi women had more freedoms than most woman in the middle east. Ms Souhail, a one time fan of bush and his war and his plans for Iraq has had a change of heart. An Iraqi woman who sat at bush's presidential address in february hugging a mother of a fallen soldier in Iraq, for all the cameras to see has decided, mmmmmm not so much. ""When we came back from exile, we thought we were going to improve rights and the position of women. But look what has happened: we have lost all the gains we made over the past 30 years. It's a big disappointment. "
I would love to see her on tv now. but chances are we will not. This is a very sad time for americans and iraqis, we did what we set out to do, saddam is gone, and we have spent HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF OUR DOLLARS! It is time for us to stand back. 1776? we cant be seriouse.
