Where is the revulsion about this matter? We keep hearing how this nascent Iraqi government believes in Democracy, and yet, right before their eyes, a minority group is being murdered and they are in total denial. Why has the media been silent about this? Why has this question not been asked of the president during news conferences. Are gays and lesbians just not really important enough to be of concern to the president or the media?

This president stands and defends this Iraq government knowing full well, that they are murdering people strictly based on their sexuality. Al Malaki is no better than the other murderers that are marauding the country and killing innocent civilians. Let's get the hell out of there and stop defending this government. If their democracy and freedom is important enough to them, they would be happy to see us go so they can make their own country work. Of not, at the very least they should renounce violence against ALL of its citizens.

If W has his way our Govt. will soon be the same.

You can only voice your opinion in this matter and some what blame GWB, because the matter would persist as is without America being there since Islamic countries generally don't allow gays and lesbians to "come out" in public. This doesn't really mean there aren't gays and lesbians in Muslim countries (I might have clipped another article on the same topic related to Saudi Arabia).

Here is the clip.
