Former Iraqi PM not happy he's a former Iraqi PM
I pull up the Washington Post on my computer and first page:
Bush Remains Upbeat On Outcome for Iraq
On third anniversary of war, White House hails progress, but Iraqi prime minister warns country is edging toward "the point of no return."
–Michael A. Fletcher
Wow; Iraqi Prime Minister Jafaari!!??!!
Uhhh, no...it was actually Ayad Allawi, a FORMER Prime Minister, or more accurately, the former Prime Minister of the former Interim Government.. Now, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t consider what he has to say but there is a BIG difference between “prime minister” and “former prime minister”.
“"We are losing a day as an average 50 to 60 people throughout the country, if not more," Allawi said on BBC's "Sunday AM" program. "If this is not civil war, then God knows what civil war is." “
And a former Prime Minister saying this would be news….if it was new:
Allawi: this is the start of civil war - Sunday Times: July 10, 2005
This guy is starting to sound like an Iraqi Jimmy Carter.
