Dear Mr. Latif:
What an excellent article. I think this should be disseminated more
widely
than so much of the shallow trash that we are reading about Iraq. I
agree
that this may be the first real break that this sad country has had in
centuries. Thank you.

Who are you? I know you are Iranian, but are you a writer, a professor,
or
just an amateur scholar? Whatever you are, I salute you.

English-speaking Iraqis came up to reporters to express their own delight. Among them was Saad Ahmed, a 54-year-old retired English teacher. "We have been waiting for you for a long time," he said. "We are now happier than you.

"You are victorious as far as the war is concerned, but we are victorious in life. We have been living, not as human beings, for more than 30 years."

His son Emad, a 23-year-old student, added: "It's a great day for us and for all Iraqi people. Every family in Iraq have one, two, three deaths because of Saddam, either from wars or in his prisons. I am very happy." One of those joining in the celebrations, Qusay Rawah, said the downfall of Saddam's regime in Basra was a day "we had prayed for".
