erm, democracy?

How else are they going to ensure that the new Iraqi political regime does not stray outside the parameters the US has set down?

c) Reconstruction parceled out to the right people.
d) US interests favored
e) Strategic encirclement of Iran and Palestine-Lebanon-Syria
f) Directly control production and marketing of Iraq's oil, reducing dependence on Saudi Arabia
