		<description>What a fantastic and different kind of story from Iraq. Ms. Bawa seems as adept at dancing as she is at reporting. She seems to have an eye for the interesting side-story as she did when reporting on one of the candidates (McCain?). Keep it up!</description>

		<description>Thank you so much for sharing the other side of Iraq.  Everyone is always so quick to show the bad, but always slow on reporting the good. As the mother of a solider that served in Afghanistan and who will go again later this year, it is amazing to hear the other side of life in these places.  We have no concept of what life must have been and still is for these people who in most cases have never had the opportunity to vote for their leaders, have the freedom that we American's have taken for granted.  

On the day that Baghad fell one of the Fox Reporters asked a 46 year old man what he thought he would do now that he would no longer be under the rule of Hussain and his reply struck me like I had just been hit with lightening.  His comment was he didn't know what to do because Hussain had been in power for 40 or his 46 years. WOW!!!   Stop and think about what this man said..... 

Think about what these young ladies are experiencing right now... these are things we do in our lives everyday, some of us have experienced for years...tomorrow you could take your young daughter to ballet, gymnastics, softball... any given event you can participate in and you give it no second thought because you have had the freedom to do this every day of your life here in America.

All we hear is about the civil unreast in Iraq.  We shouldn't be involved in their civil conflicts.  Hey Everyone Wake UP..... What about the civil unrest right here between our own candidates for president, what about the unrest right here between American's... People in America are screaming about the money we are spending on giving these people an opportunity to live the same life of we experience right here.  I wish someone would tell me why shoudn't we spend the money to help them, why shouldn't we teach them how to protect themselves, why should we expect them to do it all faster than it took us to do it for ourselves.

Well the truth is we don't want to spend our money over there because that means we will do without here in America.  Do without what !!!!  Oh I know someone just might have to work two jobs to take care of themselves and their family.  (For some they just might have to get a job period) because the government doesn't have the money to cover all the handouts that everyone thinks they are entitled to. People will have to work so they can have health insurance because the government doesn't have the money to insure everyone in our nation.  Someone might have to work while going  to college to afford it because the government no longer has the money to loan, give away or guarantee your right to have a 4 or 8 yer degree on binge drinking. 

You know maybe they are right after all.  Maybe we should stop sending our money to help them because they just might turn into a nation just like us.  Full of self centered, selfish, egotistical Americans that can only think about what they think they deserve.   NOT WHAT THEY HAVE EARNED...</description>
