First, you have a DU style and content of writing so you need to go back to DUmmy land. But before you will be banned and soon you will these are some facts for you:

This new constitution will not create an Islamic state nor a theocracy as in Iran or Saudi Arabia. Islam will be a main source of civil laws as in the case of every muslim country in the world including Turkey, the most secular of them all. As in our case our Judeo-Chrisitan religion has influenced a lot of the thinking in writing the laws of the nation, Islam will play this role in Iraq. It will have an effect mostly on divorce, marriage and other civil cases. There will be no mullahs that will rule Iraq and women will still have the rights to vote and be elected or appointed to many government offices.

You seem pretty knowledgable about this - can you answer my question in post#69 about "federalism"?

Time will tell. However, no country that relies on any form of Islamic leadership can be trusted.
