Just watching the BBC (am out of the country right now) and one Iranian man was interviewed. He asked "now they have free elections in Iraq, so why cannot we have them here?"
If we did one good thing in Iraq, it was this and I hope to God that we have seriously made a difference in that part of the world. Judging from the man above I really feel that we have.

PS, the next 24/48 hours will tell a lot. Should the police or thugs finally realize that they cannot stop all of this then the religious nuts will have lost. Either way, the ball is rolling and cannot be stopped now. Maybe not this election but the end of the religious nuts reign there is in sight.
