The United States' so-called "liberation" of Iraqi women has made them less free than they were under the Baathist regime, with abduction, rape, and "honor" killings now a daily reality.Here is the full article. How would someone have the heart to strangle someone with wire, drag them to a football field, and use their dead body for target practice? It makes my tongue feel like a weight in my mouth and my stomach catch in my throat. It kills me to hear of these "honor" killings and how, yet, we're "liberating" the Iraqis. Why are we even still in Iraq? Shouldn't we be worried about freeing people in our own country?
