It is happening without Dumbya's help, thank you. Women in Iran have been asserting themselves and have been for years (Iranian lawyer and human rights activist Shirin Ebadi won the Nobel Peace Prize for 2003). In fact, by threatening to attack Iran, Mullah Dumbya has strengthened the position of Iran's theocrats and undermined the progressive movement there.

How is democracy coming along in Iraq, btw? With a meeting of the parliamentarians inside the Green zone fort (and in spite of that, the building was rocked by blasts). And do you know that the Shiites referred to the "northern region of Iraq" and the Kurds corrected them, saying it should be "Kurdistan"? Welcome to Iraq! Those who don't learn from history are condemned to repeat it (ironically, it is Britain's own history, and yet Tony "the lapdog" Blair has chosen to ignore it).

Jeeez, As soon as W gets these heathen muslims to allow female Imans then he can start to work on getting the Catholics to allow female Priests. Uh huh.

There go the Bushies again!! Desperately seeking situations where Bush has been a success.

The event — sponsored by the Muslim Women’s Freedom Tour, a grass-roots organization, and MuslimWakeUp.com...

Didn't know that Bush was a member of this group! If he is then I can see Bush's hand in this.

Yuu think Bush had a hand in the abolition of women's rights in the past such as in sati etc.?
