Power Line: Preliminary thoughts on the emerging Iraqi constitution

This is good news, as much has been made about Islam being a central source of Islam. I had fears that this would cause the collapse of Iraq. However, it seems that the Iraqi constitution is much like the Afghani model, with strong protections in its language for democracy and human rights. It also protects the freedom of speech and religious practice, protections granted in our First Amendment.

Maybe this experiment in democracy has hope, after all.

From Power Line.
