Iraqi Constitution
Partial Text of the Iraqi Constitution
Article (14): Iraqis are equal before the law without discrimination because of gender, ethnicity, nationality, origin, color, religion, sect, belief, opinion or social or economic status.
Wow. Pretty amazing that it’s explicitly stated in a “democracy” that’s been going strong for about, oh, 6 months, and not stated in our constitution, which has had about 228 years of practice.
You know, we should probably fix that. We could learn a thing or two from these Iraqi folk.
