The draft of the constitution that I read a few weeks ago had broad sections concerning equality under the law, human rights, freedom of speech, etc. See if you can find any of those things in Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc. And the draft of the constitution that came out today significantly weekens the authority of Islam over the law by changing the text to read that it is a source of the law rather than the source. The chicken littles who expected Iraq to install the establishment clause in their constitution deserves to be dissapointed - it is Iraq for christ's sakes.

BAGHDAD, Aug 22 (Reuters) - A draft constitution for Iraq to be presented to parliament on Monday will make Islam "a main source" for legislation and ban laws that contradict religious teachings, members of the parliamentary drafting panel said.

Was that intended humor? :)
