thanks H ;)

I have heard that the overall turn out was very impressive, given that this was the first free election in years!!
There was very little trouble, and many of the friends and familiy members i spoke to last night and this morning were all talking with a sense of real pride in what they have just attempted to do for thier country, some with trepidation yes, but they VOTED !! :)
It will be really interesting in the days to come to hear/see how this has effected the people as a whole, and have they now seen the meaning of democracy .

I guess that we need to see who is funding the Military at the moment.

The military said they will hand over power, but if they don't like who comes to power will they keep their promise ? Who has the say as to who can stand for elections ?
I hope the people make the right decision about who it is that they want to be their leader. God forbid that they choose some religious party :?

We all know what religion has done for us in the last few thousand years, and there has been NOTHING positive that comes from a pack of lies and distorted truths..
