re: On Sunday, the Los Angeles Times reported that Shiite militias and religious parties have turned the southern city of Basra into a de facto Islamic theocracy. "Religion rules the streets of this once cosmopolitan city, where women no longer dare go out uncovered," reported The Times. "Conservative Shiite Islamic parties have solidified their grip, fully institutionalizing their power." Is that the same Basra that Elroy was raving about? Naw, must be a different Basra. Not to worry. Its in another country in another galaxy............far far away..........from reality. ted
