saddam had plenty of god in his speeches but then so does gw bush.

regardless of that the operation of iraqi government was VERY secular.

tariq aziz, the #2 man and the premier iraqi statesman, is a christian...

this is why iraq had to go, too advanced of a society for the liking of the powers that be who prefer their arabs backwards and balkanized.

EDIT: saddam speech aboot women's rights?

why overlook the fact that more than 50% of iraq's university grads were women? pretty out-of-step with all those backwards arab countries, who by the way are our 'buddies' over there. something to remember when justifying the invasion post-humously.
