I would think so, but these past six years under Dubya have been surreal for me, because it's a completely foreign idea to me that the U.S. would invade another country with no just cause, and cause the terrible amount of suffering we have caused. Torture, from America? God forbid.

As a woman, seeing what has happened to my sisters in Iraq pains me deeply. Regardless of what country we're from, or what language we speak, women have a deep bond in that we bring forth life, and are programmed to protect and nurture it. It must be an even more bitter cup to drink from for these women, because they had some freedom before, and have lost it now.
