DISQUS

I'm amazed you consider the war in Iraq a "fight for Freedom".

Yuck.

For what else is it a fight? Do you not have any understanding of the significance that the Iraqi people have voted in their first free democratic election, with the next one up-coming in December? This hasn't been done in DECADES! Under Saddam's rule, his name was the only one on the supposed "ballot," so that explains exactly why he always won with 100% of the votes!

I could go on and on about the good things that are happening and HAVE happened in Iraq that would have NEVER happened under Saddam, but I'll just provide you with a link to peruse at your own pace. It's quite lengthy (oh, yes, there's LOTS of good news), but I think you should take the time to read it..

By the way, you should do a Google search and find out the number of Iraqis out there now in the blogosphere saying and emoting WHATEVER THEY WANT! Do you think that would have even been ALLOWED under Saddam?

The seed of democracy that has been planted in Iraq is what's causing the other Islamofascist countries around it to have nightmares! Qadaffi knew what he had coming if he didn't surrender his nukes, and Iran & N. Korea are only threatening MORE because they're TERRIFIED their masses will rise up and demand the same freedoms their Iraqi neighbors have!

You, my friend, may not be blind, but you truly do not see.
