KUWAIT FEMALES CAN NOW VOTE
J. Grant Swank, Jr.
That means Muslim women can now vote in Kuwait. Miracles still happen.
According to The Daily Star, "Kuwait's Parliament passed a law granting women the right to vote and cleared the way for women to run in parliamentary elections for the first time in the emirate's history.
"Women can now vote in all Middle Eastern nations where elections are held except Saudi Arabia."
In other words, freedom spread initiated particularly by US President George W. Bush has now blossomed voting rights for Muslim females in Kuwait.
At the same time, Ethiopian officials have allowed voting for all citizens, enlarging hopes for grassroots democracy.
Also, Egypt promises real-life voting for all citizens in real-life presidential elections this autumn.
In addition, Afghanistan continues its democracy planting, despite spurts here and there from leftover Taliban control.
All along, the New Iraq government led by its newly formed National Assembly anticipates its first legitimate constitution, giving increasingly dim attention to the prior despotic rule of Saddam Hussein.
Ukraine government officials promise democracy for the future of its citizenry.
Lebanon now experiences freedom from the oppressive neighboring militia, anticipating its own right to govern its own future.
So with the news today that Kuwait now grants voting privileges to its women — Muslims mostly — America can once again breathe more easily that slowly but surely liberties personal are coming to fruition in places where heretofore freedoms were only dreamt of.
"Prime Minister Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah told reporters at Parliament he planned to name a woman minister.
"’I congratulate the women of Kuwait for having achieved their political rights,’ he said.
"However, an article included in the bill requires that any female politician or voter abide by Islamic law. It was not clear what limits this may put on women's rights."
In other words, some hard-liners still wanted to keep females under their thumb, hence the additional statement that females had to line up with Islamic law, whatever that meant in real-life, real-time.
There are those females in Kuwait who immediately responded by informing the press that they were not going to take that additional statement all that seriously. Instead, they were going to forge ahead as if that addition were not even there on papers approved.
In truth, Kuwaiti women will now take charge in their own spheres to see through a democracy planted that includes them in the fullest definition.
In truth, the liberties espoused by the American President are becoming the treasured possessions of more and more human beings. It is expected that such freedom hunger will increase. With it, the liberties pressed for will come to pass.
Daily it is becoming increasingly difficult for dictators to continue their power vice upon the populace. Daily the people are taking to the streets, to the media, to the parks, demanding that they enjoy liberty’s breezes as experienced in freedom nations.
All the while, Mr. Bush continues his evangelizing of freedom personalized. All the while, his Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice echoes the President’s hope. All the while, those who treasure their freedoms applaud the United States for setting the pace.
It is the first time in a very, very long time that the most powerful nation on the globe has spent its energies and time in such extensive displays of establishing democracy wherever invited. And it’s due to the President of the most powerful nation making the freedom spread his top item in foreign policy.
Though the liberal press refrains from giving Mr. Bush his due and the Democratic Party continues to carp at his every move, freedom lovers everywhere give credit where credit is marked — upon the desk of the Oval Office United States President George W. Bush.
And that includes the ricocheting of voting rights now granted women in Kuwait.
