[bodytext] => The news is good there’s no mistake This time no danger, he’s not a fake Autocratic rule will always fall It sometimes takes time that is all Remember Amin, Ceucescu, Honecker?

Some you will, some you won’t But wielding power, now they don’t Dictators do fall in the end By their own peoples hands And win out with dignity and pride Not because a foreign power commands In this case he’s STILL gone And for that we must be glad For he WAS an awful man But there will be no peace Until the Iraqis are free This is what we must understand There must be dignity And a freedom to choose Perhaps even the Shi-ite way And with occupiers out And staying out No longer to have their say Sovereign nations need their pride And will have it at any price Let no prideful U.S. power Think less will suffice Saddam is gone That is totally good That does NOT mean The coalition acted as it should Get out now while you still can You can’t control our fate We don’t need your arrogance Or need your childish hate A new Iraq can now be born free of Saddam No, not perfect in every way But an Iraqi for Iraqis And for Iraqis it will stay [comments] => 1 [counter] => 275 [topic] => 41 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )
