Protests continue in Iraq as Iraqi's fight for basic rights and basic services. Despite the billions of dollars coming in each month from oil revenues, the Iraqi people are still without drinkable water and continuous electricity. Heavy rains mean flooding because Nouri has failed to put money into the sewer system. Nouri targets his political rivals and he resorts to mass arrests of people who are guilty of nothing and are never charged but disappear into what passes for 'justice' in Nouri's Iraq. The photo above is from Falluja's Friday protest and the sign says it all, "IRAQ has become the Wild West, Land with NO LAW." Photo is by Iraqi Spring MC -- they remain the go to source for coverage of the protests so here for Facebook, here for Twitter, here for Flickr.
