US Ambassador In Iraq Says Country Plagued By Infighting...

NY Times | SABRINA TAVERNISE, ROBERT F. WORTH |

February 20, 2006 at 09:40 PM


The American ambassador to Iraq issued an unusually strong warning on Monday about the need for Iraq's political factions to come together, hinting for the first time that the United States would not be willing to support crucial public institutions plagued by sectarian agendas.

"The United States is investing billions of dollars" in Iraq's police and army, said the ambassador, Zalmay Khalilzad. "We are not going to invest the resources of the American people to build forces run by people who are sectarian."

1. Look at that ridiculous quote ....
"We are not going to invest the resources of the American people to build forces run by people who are sectarian."


We already have poured nearly one half TRILLION into that money pit.

Plus the audacity of these guys to think they can buy allegiance. They think the Iraqis would automatically be repugs.
