Forced Prostitution and Slavery On Rise in Iraq

According to veteran Middle East observer, Robert Fisk, Iraqi citizens are not worried about the new Constitution They are worried about protecting their wives from being sold into slavery and prostitution.

"As we sit in New York or London with wall-to-wall coverage of the (Iraqi) constitutional referendum, in their homes Iraqis are not talking about the constitution. They are talking about how to protect their wives," said Fisk.

This is a big problem, people. We can't control the borders enough to keep terrorists out. Now we can't even protect the people of Iraq which is now the only reason left for us to be there.
