Hillary is shocked. Why? Because she liked him:

"...on paper, women had rights. They went to school, they participated in the professions, they participated in the government and business and, as long as they stayed out of Saddam's way, they had considerable freedom of movement," :lol:

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - An Iraqi appeals court on Tuesday upheld Saddam Hussein's death sentence for crimes against humanity and said he should hang within 30 days.

"The appeal court has approved the death sentence. They (the government) has the right to choose the date starting from tomorrow up to 30 days. After 30 days it will be an obligation to implement the sentence," the head of the Iraqi High Tribunal, Aref Abdul-Razzaq al-Shahin, told a news conference.

Saddam, 69, was sentenced to death on November 5 for crimes against humanity over the killings of 148 Shi'ites from the town of Dujail after he escaped assassination there in 1982.

Wow. I thought that Howard Dean and Dennis Kucinich were thick. The Democrats must be trippin' on some good LSD these days.

Yesterday, the number of american victims in Irak has exceed the 9/11 victims.
(over 50 000 iraki civilians have died.)

Bravo neo-cons. Great going. Hang Sadaam so we can purge our misery out.

Pathetic…

Yesterday, more people died because of stupid Bolshevik policies that actually hurt people and hinder them from reaching their true potential.

The American Democratic Bolshevik party has done more harm to this country's moral fiber than any other weapons the soviets ever devised.

I keep reading, and reading, and...
Guyone, do you live in a atombomb shelter ? You have not been out for the past 50 years, isn't it ?
Get out there, son. See the light. You can eat rice at McDonald's.
... If you get out enough, that is.

The only pathetic people in view are the sock puppets like yourself who

cannot differentiate between the murder of about 3,000 innocent civilians

and the death of soldiers who volunteered willfully.


Saddam murdered about 300,000 iraqis. Those numbers would be even

higher today if this soon to be dead tyrant wasn`t taken out.

Next stop on the liberation tour : IRAN 8)

Women Lose Ground in the New Iraq

Once They Were Encouraged to Study and Work; Now Life Is 'Just Like Being in Jail'

BAGHDAD -- Browsing the shelves of a cosmetics store in the Karrada shopping district, Zahra Khalid felt giddy at the sight of Alberto shampoo and Miss Rose eye shadow, blusher and powder.

Before leaving her house, she had covered her body in a billowing black abaya and wrapped a black head scarf around her thick brown hair. She had asked her brother to drive. She had done all the things that a woman living in Baghdad is supposed to do these days to avoid drawing attention to herself.

It was the first time she had left home in two months.

"For a woman, it's just like being in jail," she said. "I can't go anywhere."

Life has become more difficult for most Iraqis since the February bombing of a Shiite Muslim mosque in Samarra sparked a rise in sectarian killings and overall lawlessness. For many women, though, it has become unbearable.

As Islamic fundamentalism seeps into society and sectarian warfare escalates, more and more women live in fear of being kidnapped or raped. They receive death threats because of their religious sects and careers. They are harassed for not abiding by the strict dress code of long skirts and head scarves or for driving cars.

For much of the 20th century, and under various leaders, Iraq was one of the most progressive Middle Eastern countries in its treatment of women, who were encouraged to go to school and enter the workforce. Saddam Hussein's Baath Party espoused a secular Arab nationalism that advocated women's full participation in society. But years of war changed that.

In the days after the U.S.-led invasion in 2003, many women were hopeful that they would enjoy greater parity with men. President Bush said that increasing women's rights was essential to creating a new, democratic Iraq.

But interviews with 16 Iraqi women, ranging in age from 21 to 52, show that much of that postwar hope is gone. The younger women say they fear being snatched on their way to school and wonder whether their college degrees will mean anything in the new Iraq. The older women, proud of their education and careers, are watching their independence slip away.

"At the beginning, we were very happy with those achievements and gains, and we were looking for more," said Ina'am al-Sultani, 36, a leader of the Progressive Women's Movement, a nongovernmental organization. "Women are now restrained."

Khalid, 30, whose only visible features as she shopped on a recent day were her round face and long eyelashes, was an accountant at the Planning Ministry until she received a death threat four months ago. She quit, moved to a new home and changed her phone number.

"We're suffering right now," Khalid said, her two sons tugging at her abaya. "The war took all our rights. We're not free because of terrorism."

The only sock puppet I see here is you, cheering like a blind monkey and living in a state of denial.
Everybody knows Irak is a mess.
China and Russia are fucking the american people in the ass since that stupid war, taking political grounds in Africa, Asia and Middle-East.
You have failed both your citizens and your country.
You neocons are drowning.
Good for the world.

Salama al-Khafaji, a former dentist is Iraq`s most popular female politician and 11nth overall.

One provision of the new Iraqi constitution guarantees women 25 percent of the seats in parliament.January 2005 elections, women captured 31 percent of the seats.

The constitution also designates that the Human Rights Commission and the Federal Supreme Court defend individual rights.Article 39 deems Iraqis "free in their personal status according to their religions, sects, beliefs, or choices," .

The fact that demagogues such as Muqtada al-Sadr are terrorizing women into wearing veils is temporary. That pukes days are numbered. The fact that WaPo leverages it whole story on the hearsey of 16 individuals is weak.

Iraq is as much a mess as Germany was. It took 10 years to rebuild and there are still troops there.

China? You`re the dimwitt who buys their crap,not me.

Russia? In case you haven`t noticed Putin is fucking Russians too,from private industry to the media to killing people with radioactive powder.

The war? That was over in 2 weeks. The war on terrorism will continue.

Neo-Con? You barely know what that means because I was never a trotskyite,socialist,liberal or marxist but I do support killing terrorists wherever they are and liberating not only Iraq but Iran.

Mission Accomplished!

Wait... lets hear it just one more time...

Are you feigning total ignorance of a war between two standing armies and the war on terrorism in general or can you not differentiate between the two.

I think you`re faking it,otherwise we may have a contender for new village idiot. Or perhaps Articl III was lost on you too.
