Funny, they keep talking about the Iraqi people, but all I see are men.

Arab culture are male oriented, no, male Dominated. Iraqi culture is quite westernized, but still, males do most everything there. I have seen women in view, but they are back from the action.

Also, consider that many of these people are Shia, where women definately take a submissive role.

It does seem that there is a rather good sized crowd, but not exactly throngs of people, nor a good cross-section of people, but mostly young, Iraqi men. I hope this isn't just a bunch of crazy looters. They compare it to Paris 1944, but then the streets there were PACKED with jubilant men, women and children ...
