Little by little, Saddam Hussein's oppressive legacy in Iraq is being replaced. The latest example is the Iraqi parliament's decision to make changes to the Iraqi flag.The Iraqi flag will no longer boast Saddam Hussein's handwritten praise to God nor its distinctive three stars, parliament decided Tuesday. The house passed a new flag law by 110 votes to 50. The three green stars symbolized Saddam's now-dissolved Baath Party, which had three stated objectives: unity, freedom and socialism.
This seems like another step in the right direction.
