Saddam wanted Iraq to be a secular country, though most people there are Muslim but they didn't have to be if they didn't want to be; there may be some Christians and agnostics there too. It's not like Iran where the women have to wear the chadors (sp), they were free to dress as they wanted, but since most people there are Muslims, most of the women do cover up. Basically it's cultural, not enforced.
