I recall in the 1993? when we were preparing to bomb Iraq for invading Kuwait, our CNN reporter was in the downtown Baghdad plaza filming and talking to the Iraqi public, and it was just around Christmas time. He showed vendors selling Christmas trees, and shops all decorated with Santa & nativity scene, and even a bunch of people singing Christmas carol as if you were in any western country.

I agree with you, under Saddam there was FORCED tolerance that muzzled the foaming at the mouth Islamic militants. Now its free for all.

This whole "War on Terror" was exposed as a fraud back in 1990 when you had the U.S. launching a massive military campaign against one of the most tolerant Islamic governments in the Middle East (Iraq) -- on behalf of one of the most radical Islamic nations in the world (Saudi Arabia).

What a joke.
