James Baker has been sent by Bush to convince the Europeans to ease the debt owed by Iraq. I heard Baker say to the press, "We have to ease the debt burden on the Iraqi people." All of this while the U.S. debt burden mounts for our children and grandchildren. Outrageous! :grr:
Hidden little "secret" of occupation according to the Geneva Convention or the UN Charter, I forget which. I ran across it a couple months ago. Maybe somebody else wants to do the search if they think it's important. I don't feel like it. ha! But I think that's why it's so important to the Administration to get it done.
Remember when Bush scoffed "I'll get my lawyer." when asked whether he was worried about breaking int'l law by excluding anti-war nations from reconstruction?
