Ahmed Chalabi

O homem forte do Congresso Nacional Iraquiano e membro do Conselho Governativo do Iraque, escreve hoje um artigo no Washington Post, analisando a actual situação no Iraque...

The Iraqi people are overwhelmingly grateful to President Bush and the American people for helping us liberate Iraq. We have great respect for ambassador L. Paul Bremer for his courageous and wise decision to outlaw Hussein's hated Baath Party, army and security services. In the light of this murder, however, the United States needs to act quickly to defuse the current situation, reinforce security across the country and win back the trust of the Iraqi people.

Hussein did not have a military strategy to confront forces on the battlefield. What he did have was a post-defeat strategy to conduct terrorist attacks against U.S. forces and the Iraqi people. His ultimate aim is twofold: to turn the Iraqis against their liberators and to create a "body bag problem" for the Bush administration. He thinks he can force an eventual U.S. withdrawal from Iraq and has often pointed to Vietnam, Lebanon and Somalia as examples of America's inability to withstand casualties

There is no need for more American or foreign troops in Iraq today. Only one force can defeat the Saddam Hussein network -- the Iraqi people...It is only by involving the Iraqis as true partners that the United States will be able to salvage the situation. The Iraqi people must feel they have a stake in their governance; they must feel that they are in control of their own land
