Thousands of Sunnis protesting the Iraqi Constitution.
The "Islamic" Constitution. This is what over 1800 of our soldiers supposedly (multitude of morphed reasons) gave their lives for. Check out the poster of Saddam Hussein.

1. These people are not patriotic!
After all, can't they just be happy with all the folks we let out of Abu Ghraib and support their (our) government?

2. Ungrateful anti-Muricans
Why don't they like their freedom served up at the point of a gun I wonder.

4. Do you believe that we went to Iraq for Iraqi freedom, and especially
for a new Islamic Republic to flourish?

The overriding statement in that constitution is that Islam is the state religion, and it's laws overrule all other laws. That then disqualifies a very large part of the other articles of that constitution, and women, who were Equal under Saddam, are going to be thrown back into the middle ages.
