They see that Iraq had elections and a free of a tyrant and want that for themselves.
France and Germany and Russia and our damned Dems may have been against us taking Saddam out and freeing the people of Iraq, but the rest of the Middle East now sees what we did in a positive light.Well,most of the people do.
Awesome, and thrilling!
You all have GOT to see these pictures!!!!Thanks, Howlin. Excellent. Thanks.
Great pictures. For a few years now I've been thinking that the internet and technology will change the world. The young people will see how others live and want that for themselves.
Beirut's Berlin Wall Washington Post FR 2-23-05
"It's strange for me to say it, but this process of change has started because of the American invasion of Iraq," explains Jumblatt. "I was cynical about Iraq. But when I saw the Iraqi people voting three weeks ago, 8 million of them, it was the start of a new Arab world." Jumblatt says this spark of democratic revolt is spreading. "The Syrian people, the Egyptian people, all say that something is changing. The Berlin Wall has fallen. We can see it."
Thank you for the ping.
What inspiring pictures!
Thank you, freedom44, for posting them.
Wonderful!
The yearning for freedom is being heard, erupting from the depths of oppression and enslavement by people all over the Middle East. Yet liberals do no hear that cry. If they hear the cry it means they have to recognize and acknowledge that President Bush has heard the cry and taken action.
Liberals have stood in the way of freedom, have allowed their adoration of Old Europe and the scandal reeking UN to continue the suppression of human rights.
Thank God President Bush has the fortitude, moral compass and ability to lead when others prefer to discuss.
