A populace armed to their boot straps with weapons. Large, foreign companies stealing national resources. Gays killed on the streets. Competing factions trying to implement their idea of a perfect theocracy.
Sounds like Bush is shaping Iraq to be his image of America. Now, what to do about those thousands of teenage prostitutes? Quote:

If you look at the majority of Arab nations that aren't at War with the US, they are brutal to gays.

Saddam and his Baath Party were renown for being one of the most secular governments in the Middle East. It sounds reasonable to me. Religious extremism has flared up because of the war. Why wouldn't gays be attacked more often now?

There is so much more to the equation than small matters, a few miniscule percentiles mean nothing when presented with the big picture as it has been and as it will always be so, you choose the hill to die on and it seems all in vain to a certain extent- priorities first.
My question is, how does it affect the invasion force? They are our boys/girls and we hail them as heroes so I put their priorities (their needs) first. I was one of them at a certain time in my life, it could have been me.

i was talking to a Baha'i friend the other day, and we were speculating as to the Baha'i community in Iraq. "almost certainly decimated", he said. "and i think the Mandaeans are going the same way". still, the backlash against sexual minorities is vicious in its own right, and distinct from religious persecution.
