The United States administrator of Iraq, Paul Bremer, has said general elections could be held within a year to replace the US-appointed Governing Council.
The 25-member Interim Governing Council (IGC) recently opted for a nine-member rotating presidency made up of representatives of the country's ethnic groups.

Mr Bremer, speaking at a ceremony to reopen Iraq's foreign ministry in Baghdad, said the US-led force occupying Iraq would leave as soon as a new, democratic government was established.

But I thought Iraq was always going to have a puppet goverment and just be a US colony.

It is good news and it is expected news. However, there are many here that will not see the good news for what it actually is.

It will be good news, when it happens and if it happens properly.

Anyone else notice this all comes together at the time Bush will be campaigning for re election?

This is all manipulation. There is no need to wait for anything. Get on with letting Iraq do what it needs for Iraq, not Iraq doing what it needs to re elect Bush!:|
