#1 Hmmmm. 130,000 Jews vote in the Iraqi elections; a couple of million Sunnis don't.

Works for me. :-D

#2 It's all coming back to me now... yeah, um, I'm pretty sure I was an Iraqi citizen once... it was a long time ago, back before there was hair, and um, I was in Gov't... Chief Legal Advisor... to Hammurabi... So, like, where's my absentee ballot? I don't get around so well anymore.

#3 Lots of Iraqi Jews in the U.S. and Canada, too. Charming, erudite people -- I studied under several of them at my Hebrew School. Like in the rest of the Arab world, there were anti-Jewish riots and pogroms, and those who could get out did. Entirely too many stayed behind, swinging from lampposts.

This should be interesting.
