Friedman makes some very good points. I don't understand this comment: The other hijackers are the ideologues within the Bush team who have been dealing with the Iraqi exile leaders and will try to install one of them, like Ahmad Chalabi, to run Iraq. I don't know any of these exiles, and I have nothing against them. But anyone who thinks they can simply be installed by America and take root in Iraqi soil is out of his mind. If the first government isn't install by the US where would it come from? Virgin birth? Spontaneous election? I think he is trying to say 'make sure it's provisional - for real' - a good point. The one he makes seems like non-sense to me. Paul
