This doesn't augur very well for the turmoil in the Mideast to settle down anytime soon.

Today there are protests in Iraq!

According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, at least 7 have been killed on this "day or rage."

The protests are aimed at "corruption and lack of services" for the public.

If there were a multi-decade dictator currently in place in Iraq, then it's safe to say they'd be protesting that.
