SeanAhern's Journal: Interesting photographs of a rally in Iraq

A site I occasionally lurk at is the Image of the Day at The Cellar. Always something interesting to look at, and often some good debate.

Recently, they posted some images of a rally in Iraq. From the site:

Yesterday ten thousand Iraqis took to the streets in a demonstration against terrorism and for Democracy. With Iraqi police protecting the event, the people found voices that they have never had before.

The blog Healing Iraq has a massive gallery of photos of the demonstration, and much commentary on what the demonstration meant to the author, Alaa, an ordinary Iraqi.

...

Unfortunately, the march did not fit the narrative of most of the foreign media and so they pretty much saw fit to ignore it. Here are some of the shots from Healing Iraq.

Go check it out. No matter what your political leanings, I expect you'll find it interesting, especially the discussion and debate.

When you post things like this, it's really difficult to fulfill my part of the opt-in abuse list. I feel bad that I am having trouble providing the service that you have signed up for.

In the future, please try to post more frequently, and try to say nutty things about liberals. That would make my job much easier. Thanks.

I believe that if you are familiar with my posting history, you will find little to rail against. Though this may disappoint you, I am not often inflammatory or dissentious.

I have to laugh, because I didn't even notice that you had responded to my journal entry until I made another entry. I have made you a foe because I have only seen invective and boorishness in your posts. Consequently, at a score of -1, I simply never see any of your posts. They are happily below my field of view.

Well, you dirty bastard, that's quite fine with me.

I have made you a foe because I have only seen invective and boorishness in your posts.

That's because you've only read a select few of my posts, you smelly hippopotamus.

Take the discussion in pudge's recent journal

Because of some helpful input by Pudge into my opt-in abuse service, the official policy is not to post in third-party journals. I try to provide the abuse directly to the parties that have signed up, you half-vulcan pointy eared freak.
