You all can't see the pictures, but from the Iraqi guy's FB

Millions of Iraqis protested today in all cities that have presence of Iranian backed militias, they came out to tell Iraq and the world that their government does not represent them, the Prime Minister who resigned a month ago should not be revoking any treaties (like the security treaty with the US).
They carried pictures of their secular candidate and they will continue their revolution.
If you are not Iraqi, what you need to know is:

- They dont want foreign intervention and regime change, they want to fix the constitution and have a presidential system where the gov isn’t divided between Sunni, Shiite and Kurd.
- No presence to any armed militia except for the Iraqi military and other law enforcement but no civilian militias.
- Check and balances in the government branches so politicians can’t steals millions and millions of dollars without even do their jobs.
- Keep religion and politics separate.

These are the main goals of the revolution but there are few more.

Whoever cited a blog to say it is only a few crackpots protesting in Iraq.... well maybe you're right, but maybe you are wrong?
