Letter.

Letter Published in The National UAE on 6Oct 19The people of Iraq have suffered enough, they deserve a decent life
I write to you in reference to your article Iraqi government faces calls to resign as protests death toll hits 65 (October 5).
This piece does a very good job at explaining the ongoing crisis in Iraq. Security forces have violently repressed anti-government protests leading to 65 casualties in just a few days. The oil-rich nation once suffered under the brutal regime of former dictator Saddam Hussein. Now that Iraq is a democracy, it continues to suffer of a lack of good governance.
The Iraqi people have had more than their fair share of strife over the daces. Will their dreams of a better life ever come true?
