The group leading the protest? wtf? there is no group leading the protest and the current government and all the political parties involved have been in power since the US gave it to them in 2003, and before that was Saddam for 30 years and as far as I know no one else was in power and Saddam is long dead...

Please stop making ignorant statements about my country... kthxbai

> Because when the groups leading the protests were in power they were just corrupt, social conditions were just as bad and they were as brutal and tyrannical as those now in power.

Was this before or after the west decided to parcel up middle eastern land based on whims?

Who's leading the protest? My understanding was that it is leaderless.
