Giving Terrorists the Finger

From the Associated Press :
An Iraqi election official said Sunday that 72 percent of eligible Iraqi voters had turned out so far nationwide.
Or, more succinctly,

The Finger

From Sun Of Iraq via The Command Post :
He took this photo of his finger, after being inked at the polling place.
OK, now how many people you know would have braved mortar-fire and suicide bombers just in order to vote? And how many people are still saying "Arabs are not ready for Democracy"?

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.

Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.

Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.

As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
