"I don't think he'd mind my saying this: Bremer is the dictator of Iraq. He has the money, he has the signature," said Brahimi

Well, he ain’t wrong, though “dictator” has a lot of other negative implications that don’t apply.

"But he admitted that the new Iraqi executive unveiled on Tuesday was not ideal and stressed its members would have to work hard to earn legitimacy."

I wish he would have taken just a moment to enlighten us and point to any given Government that he did consider to be "ideal." His statements are one gasbag cliche after another.

"Our leaders, Abu Annan and Braghimi, say that we don't need no stinking end of slavery, genocide, rape and terror.
Just send money to Kofi's own son, Tojo Annan and Brahimi directly.
Now why don't all you dhimmis just give up and surrender,
like the spineless and cowardly French and Spanish already have."

In post war Germany and Japan the first government was very much in the mold of what the Britain, France, and the United States wanted. Over the next few years as a real political process was established we quickly exited from their political process.

The United States of America is the only major power whom as a victor in war has deliberately set about to give democracy to its former enemy.

UN Envoy Brahimi says, "Bremer is the dictator of Iraq"
UN ENVOY BRAHIMI CAN KISS MY BUTT.

Not a very judicial nor diplomatic choice of words.

Thanks a lot, Lakhdar! Poor choice of words.

Brahimi is the sole reason al Sadr is still alive, and will undoubtedly give another speech on Friday calling for violence against Americans.

If its Friday, Its Meet Sadr.

Actually, not only a dictator but an incompetent one who has ended up screwing up the occupation for the past year, BIG TIME.

Read Michael Rubin's essay in NRO for the shameful, stupid details.

But, his time is up, so historians can analyse the blundering blowhard.

"Bremer is the dictator of Iraq"

Well this is real helpful!

Maybe Brahimi can think up some more ways he can help the Coalition and the Iraqis transition into a democratic government??

He could call for widespread support of Al-Sadr and his fellow freedom fighters [to throw off the shackles of the American Imperialist Oppressor!!]. I'm sure this will lead to a popular revolution and the Dictator and his jack-booted Army will be thrown out of the country. Then the French, Germans and Russians can move in and help set up a "real" democracy.

[McGavin999]

Yep and that "Dictator" is giving up his post in 30 days. LOL, the french are so funny, they don't even realize how funny they are.
