Right out of the gate one of the Iraqi parliamentarians asked to be called an Iraqi without his religious affiliation always mentioned. Looks like we, in the land of the free, are the only ones hung up on this. When asked if they wished if we never went into Iraq, the Sheikh responded that he wished we never went in. He added that yes, we killed one evil man but brought in many more who were even worse.

This was historic and it demonstrated that we are more alike than different. Sitting down and talking – what a concept. This was a great start in repairing some of the things we have done in the name of freedom and democracy.
