Categories
Excerpt (first and last two sentences)
"As Jay Garner
leads the US and Iraq in setting up a new Iraqi government in Baghdad, American
forces are busily trying to stabilize the rest of Iraq. Security is on the
minds of everyone working to create this new government, which agreed to meet in
one month to begin to draft a transitional government....
...Instead, it is focusing on 1) Stabilizing Iraq in order to put in a
new, anti-terrorism government and 2) to use this cease-fire to gain more
knowledge of government-terrorist ties in the region. Now, whether or not the
US is capable of extracting this information from an enemy by pretending to have
no animosity toward the group is yet to be seen."
