think of a drug addict - think of the drug dealer
who do you blame for the addiction?
a culture has relied on Saddam
there is life after Saddam
don't be fooled into thinking that just because one POV shows that the majority vote would put Saddam back into power . . .
there is so much turmoil and conflict and lies and dust and death - not that the educated iraqi's POV is not valid but i think that anything coming from there needs to be translated or looked at as if the answer or POV were considered a symptom of the cause and effect dictatorship
the path of least resistence
back to crack dealer
back to the system
again only time and space will tell
the majority Iraqi and the educated Iraqi are still drying out
getting sober from the effects of Saddam
the process is still in an embryonic state
time . . .
