Is that the so-called "iraqui freedom"? Free them, but then tell them what to do?

Yeah, unless the religious whackos start a coup and come up with a constitution of their own.

The problem is, that the mayority of iraquis (i presume), are fine with the "oppresive" religuion, I mean, it might seem oppresive for us, but that is what they are used to, and people don't always like change.

Im sorry about your friend, but that sort of discrimination is not easily eliminated. It takes a lot of time and effort. You need to educate a whole country on how to be more tolerant towards others.
I think the main problem now is for the US to do what is best for the iraqui people, and not necessarily what they
think would be best.
