No, I don't want to preach to the choir. I want to show people the result of our actions. I am fully aware that there was brutality before we invaded. But I feel that we are just trading on brutal dictator for another.

I'd also like to hear your interpretation of what this Iraqi woman is saying and what you think the future holds for Iraq.
Tell me, ART, Do you think Sharia is going to be stopped (It appears Bremer will sign the new resolution from the governing council, thus implementing religious law.)
What do you think will be the level of freedom and human rights of women in Iraq over the next 5 - 10 years? I think it will be something on the level of what Iran is now. And that is pretty close to the Taliban level of repression.

I think we went in unprepared for the real situation we were faced with in Iraq. I have had this opinion of the situation of what will happen to the average persons rights in Iraq since before the war started. I feel now that my predictions are becoming the truth.
I really don't think there is any kind of real solution to be had anyway. There really are only two choices. Allow Saddam or someone else to lead a secular Baathist state, or allow democracy, which will devolve into Theocracy.
