    Maybe "No Saddam" means "We love you" in Arabic.

      If I recall Dan, Washington said that equal rights was a prerequiste of the next Iraqi government, so that means no Islamic fundementalist types.

        i agree with dan, it's good to see these people being able to protest freely.

          Yes, however the interesting part is who they protest against.

          Not that this wasn't expected from the more... religious types of Iraq. Since one thing the US doesn't want is islamists getting to power, they know who their "enemy" is. (as was Saddam).

            It's just like the glorious Reagan years. We're going to defeat one enemy and create another.

              I expect you will see a lot of protests by hard-line fundys, probaly will get support from Iran in that.

                Hopefully Bush won't give chemical weapons to the new government.

                  An often repeated lie is still a lie. The U.S. never gave a single chemical or biological weapon to the Iraqis.

                    Oops, sorry, just all the parts and the Anthrax spores to build them.

                      They imported the Anthrax under the claim that University scientists were going to use them for research. Believe it or not scientists routinely trade micro organisms. That little fact is more then enough to scare me especially since Iraq did it so why can't Al Qaeda? Hopefully, this sort of thing has been stopped in the last 25 years since Saddam used lies and deception to get his hands on Anthrax.

                        So far only in thousands though, and Baghdad is a huge city. I doubt there are that many who want to go fundie, although we could expect there would be a few.

                          Actually if it's in the thousands it's a pretty high number for that sort of thing. Considering most would be afraid to go out.

                            Why? We have been allowing demonstration, there was a protest earlier we also allowed

                              It's the presence of men with guns that intimidate them.

                              They don't know your intentions for sure. (and after the bombing it's not like they think anyone is going to stop you if you decide to open fire)

                                Good... they never would have even been able to do this before Saddam was ousted.
