[WAR] Bombing Then Building..

[Kant]

Bush vowed on March 17 to “work closely with the international community” after Saddam falls. He also said he would “quickly seek new Security Council resolutions to encourage broad participation in ... helping the Iraqi people to build a free Iraq.” But Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who’s actually going to be running Iraq for some time, :omg: has a plan that looks somewhat different from what Jacques Chirac and other defenders of multilateralism might like to see. Elements of it are also meeting stiff resistance at the State Department. Post war plans[^] Don't :beer: and drive.

I read the other day that the person who would run post-Saddam Iraq was a West Point (military academy) officer who is an Arab (and speaks Arabic). [Edit] We are told that Army Lt. Gen. John Abizaid, one of two deputy commanders of U.S. Central Command, will likely be the top U.S. military officer in post-war Iraq. The Arabic-speaking West Point graduate would essentially run the country while the United States maintained order and then slowly handed off power to Iraqi citizens. http://www.gertzfile.com/gertzfile/InsidetheRing.html[^] [/Edit] ------------------------------------------ "What happened in that Rhode Island club is shocking.
