It's a question of the constituion and of laws. Democracy per se can't guard women,as it depends on who is elected to pass the laws. Tribal customs are extemely hard to eradicate. Even with democracy and with the appropirate laws, villagers in India still marry off child brides in the dark of night and in secret locations. There is no easy fix.

Let's all wring our hands again over the extreme behavior of Islamists everywhere. Now that that's over, let's hope (and pray) that Democracy in Iraq will take hold and a taste of freedom will marginalize the extremists.
