The article doesn't say anything we didn't know long ago. They'd already planned on saying no law can be against Islam, but they would also lay out a basic set of human rights that no law (even those supported by Muslim fundies) could violate. We'll see how it panned out.

I'm in the group that feels like getting our guys shot up for these people was not really the right thing to do. I've been saying for more than a year now that this is Babylon.... and that there was no way there would be a western style democracy/republic there. Those people are not capable of self rule. It has always, and will always be that way.

Hence the WH statements about how establishing freedom was the way to defeat terrorism has never made sense to me. We should get our guys out of the way... and then bomb those people until they surrender.... plain and simple.

Unfortunately, there's no way to reconcile the two. Islam will perpetuate, among other things, violence and tyranny against women. And given that Jihad is burned into Islam, it seems that that will be the likely loophole in the Constitution for anything which doesn't satisfy fundies...
