at odds over how to rebuild iraq. i'm sitting here stunned. why does ANY branch or organization of the united states decide how to BEST "rebuild" iraq? hey peeps, IT AIN'T OUR COUNTRY. WE have NO power there (well we should NOT have any power there). what are we going to do? do the same thing we've done in other countries? put some sort of puppet government in place - whereupon they too eventually turn against us.
i'm waiting for the rest of the united states to wake up and DEMAND from their congress people and senators an END TO OUR OCCUPATION OF IRAQ

His transgression? To begin reopening dozens of government-owned factories in Iraq.
Brinkley and his colleagues at the Pentagon believe that rehabilitating shuttered, state-run enterprises could reduce violence by employing tens of thousands of Iraqis. Officials at State counter that the initiative is antithetical to free-market reforms the United States should promote in Iraq...............
