Here are some our Baghdad staff who participated in yesterday's elections. They are proudly displaying their purple index fingers, which signifies that they voted.

I am glad to see these pictures. Things are changing in Iraq and this is one example (among many others).

As much as the Iraqi people suffered, as much as the bravery and energy they have to move forward, even if it's hard to recover the happiness, but you always see the smile on their faces in hope of tomorrow.
