"Those who are saying that Iraq constitution draft will be against women are totally wrong. In fact, I read in another clause of this draft constitution that no less than 25% of the Council of Representatives, i.e. Parliament, shall be women."

Very true. Let's keep things in perspective: when the U.S. constitution was ratified women did not have the right to vote, let alone any sort of guarantee of minimal representation in congress. That fact that 25% of the Iraqi Parliament must be female is absolutely revolutionary for the Middle East.

There are female parliamentarians in Iran also. That society claims to treat men and women equally.
