In January, Iraq held the its first democratic parliamentary elections to
choose a 275-member National Assembly and provincial legislatures.

"There is no point living in the past," Clinton said. "Look at where we are
now. Everyone, all freedom-loving people would be better off with a
genuinely representative, effective, free government in Iraq whatever your
feelings are about what went on before."
