Iraq deserves stability
With reference to the article by Sinan Mahmoud and Mina Aldroubi Iraq elections body says manual count of sample votes matches early results (October 13): Iraq deserves political and economic stability. That this is the fifth election since 2003, when America invaded the country, doesn't instil faith in Iraq's political class. The people of Iraq have suffered too much, even after the rule of Saddam Hussein.

They are able to perform in front of large audiences and pull off all kinds of theatrical feats. It's very important that they have the right support. She did really well, as did many others kids.
