It won't be democracy

With the Iraqi elections being held this week, the Bush administration is trumpeting their success in Iraq and how we have created a democracy in the country, how we have given the Iraqi's freedom.

Funny how Bush never mentions the death squads permeating Iraqi life. Funny how he never mentions the secret prisons operated by Iraqi's to torture their countrymen. Funny how he never mentions the rapidly increasing influence of Iran in Iraq through the Shiite Muslim militias. Funny how the infiltration of high Iraqi government posts by the militia and their use of American supplied material to carry out revenge attacks is not mentioned either. Funny it's never mentioned how the Iraqi Interior Ministry's intelligence agencies have become an agent of Iran, essentially becoming a rogue entity in the new “Iraqi democracy.”

One of the countries labeled a member of the “Axis of Evil” has now succeeded in taking over portions of the fledgling Iraqi government.

Civil war is next with Muslim theocracy soon to follow. Another Iran is born.
