Iraqi Shiites protest bitterly against Bushite, neocon occupation |

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4427151.stmhttp://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A39331-2005Apr9.htmlhttp://www.arabnews.com/?page=4§ion=0&article=61859&d=10&m=4&y=2005http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=656437http://observer.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,6903,1456153,00.htmlI wonder how long it will take for some of these protest organizers to conveniently "disappear"? This once again demonstrates the fraud of neocon claims about US interest in Iraqi democracy-- Bush and the neocons want only a pliable puppet regime in Iraq, and they'll talk up "democracy" only so long as they get lackeys in the Iraqi government who support US permanent bases in the country. Otherwise, people power in Iraq is a dangerous thing. Funny how that works, isn't it?
