Iraq Election finals
King Tech Quadafi:
Usually the point of the argument barely goes over Smerlus' head.
I dont think the argument and smerlus were even in the same room this time.

The Republicans in power, have done one good thing in United States foriegn policy, the group that should have won elections in Iraq, did win.
...Still, the truth is Iraqi's still don't have any real power in Iraq, and Bush never really wanted to have elections this fair, but Sustani displayed his power when he lead that massive protest about a year ago, so Bush decided he'd rather fight just 20% of the country then 80%. They are still a puppet government for now (Although Sustani's people may make a play for real power in Iraq). The US administration has already told Iraq what they can and can't do with their government, which means they have no real power and they are just puppets on a string.
Donald Rumsfeld made it plain on April 15, 2003, that the choices to the people in a "liberated" Iraq would be limited as well.
• Iraq cannot be divided into three separate countries (a plan that many people believe is the only way to bring lasting peace and freedom to the country).
• No matter what weapons nearby countries such as Israel, Pakistan, or Russia might use to threaten it, Iraq will not be allowed to have comparable weapons.
• Iraq cannot become a fundamentalist Islamic country like Iran.
• Former members of the Ba'ath Party cannot participate in any new government (although the Bush people chose Ayad Allawi, a former official in the party, to be the interim Prime Minister).
• People who are pro-Iran or pro-Syria cannot participate in the elections or the government, although anyone who is pro-American is of course free to do so.

it's common sense to give restrictions on a new government that's not quite stable.... look at the restrictions we placed on Japan after WW2... most of their military's message traffic has to come through us

So I guess you realize then that Iraq really isn't "liberated" and "free". That those are just nice sounding words that have no real meaning. Liberation means "free of foriegn countrol". And "freedom" means being free from restraints. Iraq obviously doesn't fit either of those descriptions. You do realize that don't you?
