27. Um, the Shia are the ones who want to put women back in burqas
Saddam was a Sunni, and under him women enjoyed one of the most equitable relationships with men in the Middle East. Now that Saddam is gone and the Shia are about to take power after the election, you can kiss virtually all women's rights goodbye. Think Iran, as the Shia control that wonderful bastion of freedom today.
