From ABC news:

"Eligible voters can be American citizens, but must be 18 or older, have been born in Iraq, hold citizenship or prove that their father was Iraqi."

Am I missing something here? Does this mean that an American with an Iraqi father can vote in the Iraqi election?

What if you have an Iraqi mother? Does that count?

Apparently, you don't have to be a citizen of Iraq or have been born in Iraq or even to have set foot in Iraq. What about the people who actually live there and have had to put up with all the bloodshed? This voting procedure seems intent on undermining those who have endured the bloodshed, the American occupation, and the interim government.

What a sham!
