	Iyad Allawi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dr Iyad Allawi ( Ø§ÙØ§Ø¯ Ø¹ÙØ§ÙÙ) (born 1945) is an Iraqi politician, and was the interim Prime Minister of Iraq prior to Iraq's 2005 legislative elections.
		Allawi was born in 1945 to a prominent Shia merchant family; his grandfather helped to negotiate Iraq's independence from Britain, and his father was an Iraqi Member of Parliament.
		Allawi was recruited by the CIA in 1992 as a counterpoint to the more well-known CIA asset Ahmed Chalabi, and because of the INA's links in the Ba'athist establishment.

	Ayad Allawi: The CIA's Main Man in Baghdad PATRICE CLAUDE / Guardian Weekly (UK) 23jul04
		Allawi, who bears no scars and walks without the slightest limp, saw that as proof that his attackers were Saddam's henchmen, even though they were never identified.
		Allawi strove on the contrary to recruit his former comrades in arms and did everything he could to oppose the suicidal policy of mass purges implemented by the American proconsul, Paul Bremer.
		Allawi flattered himself that he had the support of several dozen high-ranking officers.

	Ayad Allawi - SourceWatch
		Ayad Allawi (Iyad Allawi) was "unanimously nominated" to be Iraq's "interim prime minister" by "Iraq's U.S.-appointed" Iraqi Governing Council on Friday, May 28, 2004.
		Allawi is a Shiite Muslim politician and former exile "whose party was supported by the CIA ".
		Allawi's appointment was viewed as a move to pre-empt moves by the U.N and U.S. to draft someone seen as independent of the occupation forces.

		Allawi's cousin is none other than Chalabi -- the disgraced crook who, with a remarkable assist by the New York Times' war whore Judith Miller, provided much of the phony intelligence that led to the current Iraq War.
		Ayad Allawi will have his right wrist in a cast when he arrives in the United States this week for his first visit as Iraq's interim prime minister, and it will provide the 59-year-old neurosurgeon with a powerful talking point.
		For two decades, Allawi had argued that a stable post-Saddam Iraq could only be built on the foundations of the modern state the Ba'athists had created, including the army, police, and secular courts.

		Allawi appealed to militants in Fallujah to lay down their weapons and allow Iraqi forces to enter the rebel enclave peacefully, as the army vowed to press ahead with the fight.
		Allawi announced that he has authorized the Fallujah offensive by international and Iraqi forces, and that emergency measures would be imposed on the insurgent strongholds of Fallujah and Ramadi.
		Allawi, in a recent interview to an Italian daily, called the pontiff "the figure who represents peace on a global level." This meeting demonstrates to the world that Muslims and Christians can live together, and it also demonstrates that there are many Moslems willing and wanting to live that way.

	Former Exile Is Selected As Interim Iraqi Leader (washingtonpost.com)
		The council's selection of Allawi, a physician who left Iraq in 1971, was quickly endorsed by L. Paul Bremer, the U.S. civilian administrator of Iraq, and later by Lakhdar Brahimi, the U.N. representative who is leading efforts to form an interim Iraqi government, council members said.
		But that tie, along with Allawi's links to the CIA and his three-decade absence from the country, could prove controversial among ordinary Iraqis, who remain deeply suspicious of politicians who lived abroad and were backed by Western governments.
		Allawi, a tall man with a round face, made his move after Shiite politicians on the council rejected Brahimi's top choice, nuclear scientist Hussain Shahristani, a Shiite, the official said.

	Long-time CIA "asset" installed as interim Iraqi prime minister
		The insertion of Ayad Allawi as the new Iraqi interim prime minister makes a mockery of Washington’s claims to be bringing democracy to Iraq and preparing to hand over to a sovereign government on June 30.
		Allawi has insisted on retaining officials from the key institutions of state repression—the military, police and intelligence services—in order to deal with the mounting opposition to the occupation.
		Allawi continued to collaborate closely with the CIA and was one of the main sources of the “intelligence” that was used to justify the invasion of Iraq.

		Allawi has to be tough enough to overcome his reputation as a Western stooge, but not so tough that he becomes a new Saddam.
		Allawi even had to delay caucuses for the temporary national council, originally scheduled for last weekend, in order to try and cajole more hold-out groups to join in the voting.
		Allawi, we're told, is a poor politician with no natural constituency inside Iraq who's been busily reassembling the armed forces along Baathist lines and reconstituting the Iraqi Secret Police.

		Allawi: Any place which is turbulent - where terrorists and insurgents are acting against the will of the iraqi people, the govt is going to intervene, by peace, by outreach or by force.
		Allawi: You have to see him within the context of his radical organization which is built around hatred and murders and killing people and inciting hatred, racial hatred.

		ALLAWI: Today the foreign media have lost interest and left, but millions of dollars in economic aid and humanitarian assistance are now flowing into the cities.
		ALLAWI: Ladies and gentlemen, good will aside, I know that many observers around the world honestly wonder if we in Iraq really can restore our economy, be good neighbors, guarantee the democratic rule of law and overcome the enemies who seek to tear us down.
		ALLAWI: As Prime Minister Blair said to you last year when he stood here, anywhere, any time ordinary people are given the chance to choose, the choice is the same: freedom not tyranny, democracy not dictatorship, and the rule of law not the rule of the secret police.

		Allawi was anointed Iraq’s leader in June, in a formal ceremony with Paul Bremer III, the outgoing administrator of the Coalition Provisional Authority.
		Allawi told me that it was not until a few days after the 1968 coup, when a prominent Baghdad lawyer was murdered by killers linked to Saddam, that he had a change of heart.
		Allawi was deferential to him; I was told that he was the Iraqi in charge of organizing the annual hajj, a symbolically important role in Muslim religious circles.

		In the end, though, the plot went disastrously wrong: the CIA-backed generals failed to lead their tanks against Saddam as agreed and most of the plotters were tortured and executed.
		Dr Allawi opposed Mr Bremer's decision to disband the Iraqi army and his deba'athification programme, arguing that it was essential to preserve Iraq's national institutions if the country were ever to recover.

		When Prime Minister Allawi gave that speech in the Rose Garden Thursday singing the praises of the Bush administration and the glowing progress of the “success in Iraq,” it became obvious why Karl Rove traded in former hand-picked Iraqi hand puppet Ahmed Chalabi.
		Besides, Allawi is willing to use the same speechwriters as rest of the Bush team and there is no question who is pulling his strings.
		You may have noticed, watching Allawi’s speech, that while he gave pretty much the exact same speech Bush had a few minutes earlier, the president’s lips never moved, though a US hand was obviously up Allawi’s rear manipulating the jaw.
