Only then will the prospects of installing democracy in Iraq look less daunting and grim. One nation cannot do it alone and it's silly for Shrub to think that it can. Sovereignty being turned over on June 30th? I think not. Sovereignty is being turned over to the Iraqi interim government, which is populated by officials hand-picked by the US. Of course, the interests of the US will be of top priority; they would never appoint people that would ask us to leave Iraq because we'd have egg on our face and less oil. We will not finish this alone and we need the suppor tof the rest of the world. No more hoarding the oil and not sharing it, it isn't our oil to that with. Repair relations and make a REAL coalition.

Diss, what you said sounds great in theory. Unfortunately, the UN is possibly the wimpiest organization in existence right now, which is really too bad.
