I thought GW didn't want to put Merican troops
under the authority of any damn foriegners.....

<snip> U.S. commanders have stressed the go-ahead for an attack must come from Iraq’s interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi.

If an attack is ordered, West said the U.S. force led by Maj. Gen. Richard Natonski, commander of the 1st Marine Division, could face as many as 5,000 fighters dug in behind defensive works and booby traps. They likely will be fighting as individual bands of 10 to 20 men, both foreign and Iraqi, he added. <snip>

So there you have it. GW is willing to put troops under the control of foreign leaders, Unless of course Mr. Allawi is not really a foreign leader but a Friend of GW.........

Go figure
