Thanks Mack/misophist,

Thats the answer I was looking for.

So regardless of who is in power in Iraq, the muslim faith will still be guided by the local religious leader. And irrespective of what the Koran says, women's rights will be dictated by the religious leaders.
Too bad Bush has made such a mess of it. Its pretty hard to liberate anyone when the role models are so obviously evil. Its also too bad for the women of Iraq when the men with the power continue to dictate norms for the women. All of this destruction for nothing.
