Iraq Election Cycle Starts

Iraq to Close Borders During Elections

Iraq started it’s parliamentary election process with early voting today (Monday). Security inevitably looks to be a serious issue as Iraq moves towards this weeks main election day for parliamentary elections.

Iraq’s government announced it will close its borders, extend the nighttime curfew and restrict domestic travel starting Tuesday — two days before the main election day — to prevent terrorists from disrupting the vote.

The Chief’s prediction: another successful election in the face of continuing Islamofascist opposition.
