7. How can anyone believe this vote will be an indication of "freedom"

when the country is occupied by 150,000 American troops, when thirteen or fourteen American military installations have been built and when Bremer's 100 points will stand, not withstanding any new constitution?

How can there possibly be fair and free elections when a country is occupied and run by the US military?

It is all a sham and it is truly pitiful that my country has resorted to shameless propaganda to make people believe that we have brought "freedom" and "democracy" to this small, defenseless country, by forcing this bogus "election" while, incredibly, it is occupied?
