Why not have a tyranny of the majority over the minorities? In fact why even give Sunni's, kurds or christians any rights at all? After all they are only minorities, and according you (JDG), any majority has the absolute right to tyrannize any minorities. And since you (JDG) also don't believe in equal rights (men vs women, heterosexual vs homosexuals, religious vs non-religious / wrong religion), why should there be equal rights in Iraq either? _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
