NO political freedom depends on economic freedom. Folks need a full belly first.

Economic freedom can follow political freedom or political freedom can follow economic freedom. In Iraq they are experiencing more of both than the ME has seen in modern history. As I said, the idea of freedom will inspire Middle Eastern residents to demand more freedom from their own governments. What fool would accept tyranny when freedom is a short trip down the road?
