I'll say. And there are times....i.e. Saddam and Sons, that it seems certain people think they were "ruling" in those same ancient times.

I really hate to say this but, I'm not sure we are accomplishing much in Iraq regarding democracy. By that, I mean, when we leave, I think any semblance of democracy will leave as well.

I'm not sure which ME countries are democratic, which are moderate, which are under sharia law, but, I'm beginning to think that we will have to be a presence there for a long, long time, just to prevent those under sharia law from pressuring the others.

I read somewhere that 25% of the muslims in the US are wahabist. If this is true, we are really in trouble.

I heard a news anchor on Fox this morning, saying that the women of that polygimist group had been brought up and spent years living that way, and perhaps it was difficult for them to call it like it was--it had been their life for so long.

I thought to myself, yah, and you and all the others in news and the Left won't cut the poor Iraqis a break when they lived under their own horrific terror for 30+ years themselves!

It will take time, but they all will come around. Nobody likes having men forced on them as a child, OR having their hands cut off, etc. etc.
