Thanks for the info.. Sad to think someone went off to vote and won't be going home. But I don't believe it will be affective, the Iraqi's are showing great courage.
It's really cool that so many Americans from so many diverse backgrounds are working together with the Iraqis to make this work. Those kids from inner cities and so many other places are creating something, they are making history. This is the biggest thing they'll ever do. What heroes they are. Their kids and grandkids will be so proud of them.
