The future of women in Iraq

Given the latest drafts of their new constitution, it doesn't look good.

Money Quote:

"Anyone who has read anything about Iraq and the Middle East is not surprised that our invasion has created yet another means for religion to override secular, fair and just law. Imagine being a woman in Iraq, imagine knowing that you may well end up like your sisters in Iran, and worse, Saudi Arabia. Worse, imagine that as a woman in Iraq you realize that the invasion by the US has helped to take away your rights as a woman. And imagine how it would feel to hear Bush state how "free" Iraq now is, and how proud the US is of the "Democracy" that we have helped to create in Iraq."
