Actually it is. They had what is called an election, and they had a great turnout for it, actually. But I'm sure you think it was all faked, anyway, so I won;t bring it up again.

The only reason it looks a lot better, is because it's your government trying to force their will.
if it was Syria, North Africa, Korea doing the same thing, it would be seen as infringing on peace. It would be an act of world war. They would be a threat.

I'm wondering how much you actually know about what is going on in Iraq right now. A few questions:
1) What regime has taken over Iraq? I know what your answer will be, but its funny to watch you put it in print.
2) What type of government is currently in place in Iraq?
3) How exactly is America imposing their will on the Iraqi people, beyond removing Saddam Hussein by force (you know, killer of 1.5 million Iraqis)?
4) What was the percentage of Iraqi's who voted in their first open election?
5) What percentage of civilian deaths have been caused by US military engagements?
I would really love to hear your answers to these, just so you might actually look up any facts about what it going on over there beyond the fantasy sequences that play in your head whenever anyone talks about the Iraq war.
