Iraqi Democracy

Dry Bones cartoon - the Iraq vote
The terror attacks on Iraqi civilians has been a horror. If the reported election figures are at all correct, Iraqi Votersan amazing number of Iraqis braved the threat of death to exercise their right to be heard by actually voting. Check out an interesting and personal account from an Iraqi blog that is called Iraq the Model. The photograph on the right shows a group of Iraqi voters. They look like "regular folks", don't they? Sometimes the real heroes are the ordinary citizens. To see more photos check out Sooni, another interesting Iraqi blog.

Thanks for the strip - and for the links! I wonder why even the Pro-Bush Media like Foxnews are more focused on Lottery and Saddam than on this beautiful and encouraging pics.
