Eh Bobert could we have that again in some sort of intelligible form?

As for being wrong? Almost everything that you predicted has not come to pass. Where is the Arab Spring in Iraq? Doesn't need one does it? It was gifted its opportunity to embrace representative democracy in 2003. Think that what is happening in Ba'athist Syria today is bad? Just think how Saddam's Ba'athist Iraq would have reacted.

Stringsinger anything at all by way of substantiation for what you claim to be the case in your little rant?? Anything to dispute the population figures or reported per capita earnings? I got mine from census information and the per capita earnings from economic reports

So Iraq is infected with radiation from bombs is it? What bombs used against Iraq were capable of irradiating anything? I would love to hear the response to that question, but somehow doubt that I will get one.

Did I ask the women comes the bleat from Akenaton Which women specifically Akenaton and ask them what? Are they pleased that they are no longer being pulled off the streets to be raped by the Fedayeen Saddam under the direction of Saddam's sons? Are they pleased that because of the departure of Saddam's regime that they can no longer be branded as prostitutes and beheaded without trial in public just because of the supposed political stances of the male members of their families?

Shia Arab women in Iraq will today be as oppressed as they ever were in Saddam's time, they are oppressed not by the political rulers of the country but by the supposed religious dictat of their own menfolk.

Is Iraq bettwe off today than at anytime since Saddam Hussein came to power? Of course it is.
