Interesting speculation--I think it's simpler:It is inconsistent with our turn over of sovereignty to continue funding one member of the IGC.

About time. Chalabi is a toad. Wanting someone else to do his heavy lifting for him. Cowardly slime.

Uh.....what would be the sense of continuing payments once Iraq is Soverign? Chalabi will have the opportunity to run for office just like any other Iraqi. It will be entirely up to the Iraqi people if he gets elected or not.

This is all over the fence gossip, like a bunch of little old ladies.

Sounds like Chalabi may have been snooping a little to close into the UN Oil for Food Program for the State Department's comfort!

Expect Chalabi to become the best friend of the NY Times henceforth...

There is a lot more to the story than there is in this article, much of which appears to be cut from whole cloth.

There are no saints in Iraq, only sinners, but I recommend not taking this article at face value. Its publication is calculated, and is not a straightforward report of facts.
