Actually Iraqi women did have many more rights than in other Arab countries. Saddam was a secularist. He liked sexy women, music, dancing, flashing gold and all the things that Islamics stone you to death for. Including letting women throw off Burkhas and work, having a say in government, etc. Not that it was any paradise but compared to Saudi Arabia or Iran it was not a bad place to be a woman. In those countries women can still get beheaded for cheating on their husbands. But men can have 20 wives and import 20 Russian prostitutes.

Assuming Islamics take over Iraq, Iraqi women can look forward to a grim future.
