Iraqi Women May Lose Basic Rights Under New Constitution

Iraqi Women May Lose Basic Rights Under New Constitution. Freedom is...

The irony is not lost either amongst women's groups in Baghdad or activists in the United States: Iraqi women who enjoyed basic human rights under one of the world's most repressive regimes headed by former President Saddam Hussein are now on the verge of losing their hard-won freedoms under a U.S.-blessed administration in the insurgent-ravaged country.

Now I understand why we invaded Iraq. Can't let those Iraqi women get too uppity.
