From Baghdad's Own Tahrir Square to Mosul: The Friday of the Free

Read what you won't see reported in US mainstream media--its about the widespread protests in Iraq against US occupation and the US puppet government. They are learning that "democracy" American style is literally and figuratively garbage.  
Men, women, and children, Muslims and Christians  who are speaking out about the “government's” criminality against them – it was amazing and enthralling. The crushed Iraqi middle class in all its colours and hues is out and will remain out. This is the beginning of civil disobedience, all very peaceful but full of force. The women who are in Tahrir are in the hundreds, all women whose sons or husbands have disappeared in the secret prisons of Maliki and the Occupation. But Iraqis have broken the chains. The world should watch this. But the world is silent and apparently deaf and blind. Where is the free western press?
