May Day in Iraq

This is just one of many photos that I have seen over the years of peaceful demonstrations in Iraq. This is relatively small, likely because the Iraqi Communist Party is small. But I have to say one thing - if I were an Iraqi, I think I would join this group. And there is only one reason for why I feel that way - they have the best parties. Seriously.
