Sparking the Flames of Freedom

Fire of Liberty

Professor Walid Phares, a senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, has a great Op/Ed on the most recent vote on the Iraqi constitution and how ground-shaking this vote is for the Middle East that has been a barren wasteland for democracy for way too long under the dictatorial regimes under Saddam, Assad or the theocrats in Iran. Luckily, this vote has truly opened up a garage door to freedom thus allowing the Iraqi people the ability to drive down that highway of democracy thus discovering their G-d given rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness thus providing a shining Fire of Liberty to the other peoples of the Middle East. Hopefully this is the first of many turns towards democracy in the region.
