Good news from Iraq....sort of
Iraq Beginning to Become a Normal Society
Quote:
PARIS, 30 January 2004 ††At a radio phone-in program the other day I was taken to task by some listeners for what they believed is Iraqââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s †œslide into chaos.ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šà ¬Ã‚Â ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬ Å“You campaigned for the liberation of Iraq and now look what has happened!ââ‚ ¬ÂÂÂ
This was followed by a †œwhat has happenedââ‚ ‚¬Ã‚ list of events that included Shiites demonstrating, Kurds asking for autonomy, Sunnis sulking, and various political parties and groups tearing each other apart in the Iraqi media over the shape of the future constitution.
The truth, however, is that, far from sliding into chaos or heading toward civil war, Iraq is beginning to become a normal society. And all normal societies face uncertainties just as do all normal human beings..........
