Raed On Iraq's Re-Definition Of Voter

The parliament decided to identify "voter" in two different ways to make it mathematically almost impossible to reject the destructive US-supported constitution.

In the new definitions, if a governorate of 1,500,001 adults who can vote had one million of them actually going to the election polls, and all of the one million saying NO, their voices won't count as a NO, so their governorate will be a YES governorate because rejecting the constitution in one governorate requires a NO from more than two thirds of the governorate registered voters (i.e. all eligible voters in the governorate: all adults who - "used to" - recieve the monthly food rations).

In the same governorate of the 1,500,001 adults, if 10 people went to vote and five of them said YES, their entire governorate will be considered as a YES governorate, because accepting the constitution in a governorate requires a YEs from half of the actual voters (i.e. people who actually go to vote regardless of their ratio to the total number of eligable voters)

What kind of elections is this?
why don't they only put a YES option and make it easier?

Meanwhile, Jaafari and Talbani are having a big fight and each one is demanding the resignation of the other. Talbani thinks that Jaafari is "monopolizing power".

What "power" is he talking about?
Changing the number of bodyguards?
What is the power that either of them have aslan?

what a pathetic couple of losers...

On the other hand, bush is still insisting that "Right now there are over 80 army battalions fighting alongside coalition troops. Over 30 Iraqi – I say, army battalions – Iraqi army battalions. There are over 30 Iraqi battalions in the lead. And that is substantial progress from the way the world was a year ago".

He can't even get it out without stuttering, the poor thing.

This new bushy statemnet comes just some days after a US commander told members of Congress in Washington that only one Iraqi battalion was able to operate independently of U.S. forces. The report by Army Gen. George Casey, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, surprised the Senate Armed Services Committee, since Casey had told Congress in June that three battalions were combat ready

Ramadan is so sad this year, I didn't even feel that it already came. The sad thing about Ramadan now that it means more expolsions and violence for Iraq and Iraqis, instead of being the month of rituals and relaxation. With the new US offenses in Iraq, and the new unjust constitution rules, this Ramadan doesn't seem to have anything to do with relaxation.

The bush adminstration should get out of Iraq and stop fooling both of us, the Iraqi and US people. The war-supporters should believe in Iraq and Iraqis, and believe in the right of people to rule themselves.

I hope Iraq and Iraqis will have back their country, and their Ramadan, one day in the future.
