It is an interesting site. I hope others do take the time to look it over. I randomly copied some comments from the average Iraqi on the "Voices of Freedom" page. There were well over 130. Halabja was once a beautiful and historic place. We had famous poets, and we took many heroic stands. When Saddam fell, everyone here fired shots in the air." -- Jamil Abdulrahman Mohammed, mayor of Halabja, The Washington Post, August 7, 2003 "Before the war, we couldn't have the internet, satellite TV or sat phones. There is all this technology in the world that we have been denied." -- Mohammed Suphi, an Iraqi interpreter for the Americans, The Age (Melbourne), August 7, 2003 "In the 35 years that he ruled, Saddam poisoned Iraqis about the US. The Americans have been here for only four months ... The Kuwaitis worked with the US for 13 years to fix their war damage ... so we have to be patient." -- Omar al-Captain, an Iraqi interpreter for the Americans, The Age (Melbourne), August 7, 2003 "I am fighting for democracy. I am going to do my best. I am not afraid of any person. The only one I'm afraid of is God." -- Ibrahim al-Jaafari, first president of the Governing Council, Chicago Tribune, August 7, 2003 "We suffered 35 years. Now the best job is done, there is no more Saddam Hussein and his regime." -- Yonadam Kanna, leader of the Assyrian Democratic Movement and member of the Governing Council, Christian Science Monitor, August 7, 2003 "I did not think this day would come. It is a great thing." -- Sadiq Al Mosawy, an exile returning to Iraq from Australia, Herald Sun (Melbourne), August 6, 2003 The "Museum Manhunt:" page had pictures and descriptions of some of the most important missing pieces of Iraq culture. exchanges.state.gov And the OVERVIEW OF COMMERCIAL LAW IN IRAQ was fascinating. Heck.....the whole site was fascinating. As for Spain.......I guess some Spaniards have a different definition of peace than others? M
