Considering the gov’t there has stepped up protections of Christians and has condemned in no uncertain terms the terrorists who have been killing them, I’d say the yare doing about the same as they are in Egypt.

We won in Iraq.

It shouldn’t be too difficult to protect them as there aren’t many left.

“Considering the gov?t there has stepped up protections of Christians and has condemned in no uncertain terms the terrorists who have been killing them, I?d say the yare doing about the same as they are in Egypt.”

The Kerensky and Baktiar governments were considerably better than the Czar or Shah, both being reasonably dedicated to what we would call democracy and human rights.

While they lasted, that is. Both disappeared (with many of their higher-ups getting murdered), because they were used by those who were more organized and ruthless than they were. However, they presented a pleasant face for their publics and the world, and served the purpose of sweeping away the old order in a nation utterly unaccustomed and unready for democracy.

So will it be in Egypt, Fauxbama’s Iran.

As for Iraq, let’s withhold judgment for a while, shall we? Let’s see how long they stay a democracy after we leave.
