        @WSJ This image is cliche and does not represent all of Iraq and the millions of Iraqis exercising their right to vote today.

        @rashjumba @KhawandE @WSJ This is not an appearance by choice but by force. Societies where women have no face, no voice can never be free.

        @WSJ You need a caption that says these women are covered like this because they are afraid of voting. N Iraqi women aren't covered.

        @WSJ Photo is interesting juxtaposition of positive individual identification vs total repression of identity. Oh, for women.
