They know how much it means to them and that's what's important right now. For the last year, I've seen how these people have had to live due to Saddam's excesses and brutality and they are coming out from under that, slowly but surely.
Be assured, they are aware how all of this came about and how they've come to have the freedom to vote today. :-)
Good point! Thanks for your imput. This is just so amazing and BTW, I feel lucky to be able to talk to you and get the real scoop.
