Ah, the Irony

One wonders if the participants get the irony of this. Or, if their fellow citizens (and the world) are really seeing that freeodm has come to Iraq:

Thousands of Sunni Muslims, uneasy at the prospect of losing their position in Iraqi society to the Shiite majority, staged their first show of force today since the fall of President Saddam Hussein's government, marching through the streets of Baghdad to protest the U.S. military occupation and to demand a Muslim state without distinction between Sunnis and Shiites.

The impassioned demonstration would have been unthinkable under Hussein, who banned unsanctioned rallies.
