#3 So the delegates are selected, not elected; they haven't even advisory power to the various Arab governments involved; and, the delegates may not even choose the items to be debated. Sounds like they've got a real exercise in democracy going there!

#5 Themselves, TW. And probably the Euros.

That about sums it up, Sea.

The Arab worlds first parliament elected by the people will be meeting in IRAQ soon.

At the risk of appearing juvenile: nyaah, nyaah, nyaah, Egypt. (And the rest of the "Arab world," too. :-D)
