Now, if Iraq can keep from establishing a ICLU (Iraqi Civil Liberties Union), Christmas will be in Iraq long after the ACLU has banned Christmas in the States.

I did not know that most Iraqi christians followed our calender, I had assumed most of them followed the eastern rite and celebrated christmas in the beginning of January.
I wish all christians would at least celebrate on the same days, to enhance their unity and cooperation.

Even Iran’s Shiites are more tolerant than the ACLU.

We fought a lot of Grinches to make this happen.
God bless the Iraqis and the Multi-National Forces.

we piss and moan that “nobody says Merry Christmas” anymore. In some places, saying that can get you dead. Godspeed.

So how do you say “Merry Christmas” in Iraqi (Arabic)?
... and “Happy New year?”

I wonder what we maintain our excitement if say Obama mandated Ramadan as an official holiday.

On the other hand, following different calendars makes it clearer that we don’t really believe Jesus was born on December 25th.

well Islam does recognize Christ, but only as a prophet, just not as the messiah.
