PREMISE #1.
"In an unexpected move unveiled at the meeting of the Group of Seven rich nations in the Middle East, the Iraqi Governing Council, appointed by the US occupiers, announced sweeping reforms to allow total foreign ownership without the need for prior approval."
PREMISE #2.
"The move, accompanied by swingeing cuts in taxes and tariffs, is likely to fuel concerns that Iraq is being turned into a golden opportunity for profiteering by multinational corporations relying on political connections."
Mr. Speaker I'd like to put forth a motion stating that anyone who actually believes in the "concerns" in PREMISE #2 is eiter ignorant or full of B.S..

Actually those should be labelled "excerpts" not "premises"--my bad.

Gumbel files three stories about the failures of Iraq and the desperation of Presidnet Bush. He does this all from Los Angeles while sitting in an open air cafe looking a menu of anti-american prosocialist ideas. Heck he could do this in his sleep, he know the news before he writes it.
