Hi,
i agree with you on this point ..............iraq is a very morden Scoiety as compared to All other Muslim Countries.
and we have to give it to Mr Saddam for this .................he formed a Secular Scoelist Millitary Dictatorship and a very morden Scoiety ................
Iraqi women traditionally have enjoyed more rights, under the Saddam regime than women in the surrounding Arab countries......
In 1970, under Saddam’s Secular Baath party....... the constitution declared all women and men equal under the law,..... Equal Right for Education , Work and medication and Birth Control ...........equality of sexes in employment and education.........During that peak time of women’s rights, some women walked down the streets in mini-skirts.
These very Small things ( which might seem very small to us like right to use birth control or work are indeed bold steps in the middle of Muslim world ) give Iraq the making of a Morden Secular Society .............and for this he made all these Fundamentalists Organisation his enemy ..........who wanted a Islamic law....
Now my fears are Muslim conservative regime gaining power ......... Somethign Must be done to stop them .............last thing we need another Jehadi breeding Conservative Scoiety .
Currenty i don't see any Strong Secular leader in Iraq..............iraq needs a Strong leader right now .
....and about him being Brutal to his opposers well a Dictator has to be Brutal that what dictatorship is all about ........crush your opponents.
And before a few people raise a few eyebrows and start staring at me ............Let me say this ............there is not real Democracy in the Arab Wrold .......
Peace
