...religious fundamentalism is out and stalking the land and seeking political power and, other than by denying democratic elections, in the short term it's impossible to see how it can be denied power. Iraq will soon be led by men in turbans with long beards, whose ideological inspirations are the Ayatollah Khomeini and Osama Bin Laden. There may come a day, maybe sooner than you think, when western policy makers may be wishing Saddam was back....This notion that sovereignty is being given back to Iraq in June is a hoax. First, this so-called governing council is the not the government of Iraq: it was imposed by the tanks and guns of a foreign invading army which illegally invaded Iraq. Nothing legal can come from something illegal. So the people drawing up the constitution have absolutely no legitimacy whatsoever. Second, they don't plan to give sovereignty back to Iraqis in June, they plan to give some sovereignty back to some hand-picked Iraqis in June, and the Americans will still run the country. The American companies will still be looting Iraq's wealth; the contracts will still be given overwhelmingly to American corporate interests. -British MP Galloway guardian.co.uk
