Chalabi is overreacting in response to the raid. Says his relationship with the US is now "non-existant".

7. Spokesmen of Chalabi, however, strongly denied the allegations of embezzlement and accused the late King Hussein of being an agent of Saddam Hussein's intelligence agency and acting at the instance of Saddam Hussein to defame Chalabi because he had started an underground movement in Iraq to have Saddam Hussein overthrown and restore democracy. They also claimed that the money, which he was alleged to have embezzled, was actually used by him with the knowledge of the King himself and the CIA to fund anti-Saddam Hussein groups inside Iraq. According to sources close to Chalabi, part of the money was also allegedly used to fund Col. Oliver North's travels abroad in connection with the Iran-Contra operation.

History repeats itself.

Why does "Keep your enemies closer" come to mind? I think we've learned enough.

Now the Arabs have to try to figure out "what he really is".
