	Colonising Iraq
		Information on the humanitarian situation in Iraq is unlikely to be collected with quite the same diligence that the global media devote to that regarding U.S. servicemen who suffer the vicissitudes of occupation in an alien nation, culture and environment.
		With Iraq's wrecked infrastructure bearing vivid testimony to their own violations of humanitarian law, there was a certain bitter irony about this reference to lawful conduct by the U.S. occupation forces.
		Paul Bremer, the top U.S. administrator for Iraq, recently decreed that the Iraqi Army would no longer exist and that 30,000 members of the erstwhile ruling party, the Arab Baath Socialist Party, would be ineligible for any positions of responsibility in the new order.

		Iraq's chief administrator reiterated earlier pledges that a Political Council “to assist in the management of the Iraqi government” and representatives of all components of Iraqi society will be announced next month, and that a Constitutional Conference, run entirely by Iraqis, will be convened to draft a constitution.
		The political, economic and social rehabilitation of Iraq was one of the main themes of the conference, together with the peace process, US plans for a free trade area between the US and the Arab world, and global business trends after the Iraq war.
		Prior to the plenary session on “Iraq: What are the next steps,” workshops were held amongst the conference's 71 sessions on the role of international organizations and the private sector in the reconstruction of the Arab country.

	washingtonpost.com: Pentagon Defends Iraq Reconstruction Effort
		The U.S. civilian administrator for Iraq, L. Paul Bremer III, said Wednesday that the creation of an Iraqi interim government would be delayed more than a month until mid-July.
		He said assertions that the administration was failing in Iraq "reflect both an incomplete understanding of the situation as it existed in Iraq before the war and an unreasonable expectation of where we should be now."
		Critics of the administration do not "appreciate that a regime which had tens of thousands of thugs and war criminals on its payroll does not disappear overnight," he said.

	Global Exchange : Report Offered Bleak Outlook About Iraq Oil
		Similarly, Bush administration officials announced earlier this year that Iraq's oil revenues would be $20 billion to $30 billion a year, which added to the impression that the aftermath of the war would place a minimal burden on the United States.
		In the months leading up to the war, administration officials said little in public about oil, partly because they were "encumbered by fear" that their actions would be seen as helping the American petroleum industry, said one administration adviser.
		The administration's examination of the subject began last September when Douglas J. Feith, the under secretary of defense for policy, asked an adviser to oversee plans for Iraq's oil industry in the event of war, according to a Pentagon official involved in the project.

	New U.S. administrator arrives amid chaos in Iraq - The Advocate
		BAGHDAD, Iraq - The new civilian administrator of Iraq arrived in the chaos-choked capital yesterday, faced with the daunting task of restoring everything from security to electricity, a job many here and in Washington say has not been handled effectively to this point.
		Among the other civil officials expected to be replaced in Iraq are: Margaret Tutweiler, who has been in charge of communications; Tim Carney, who is overseeing the country's Ministry of Industry and Minerals; John Limbert, who has been working on various humanitarian and political assignments; and David Dunford, a Middle East expert.
		With coalition forces and civil administrators having failed to restore law and order, as well as most public services thus far, some Iraqis have begun to believe that the United States is abetting the disorder to gain long-term control over the country.

		Paul Bremer's appointment as the new U.S. civilian administrator in Iraq.
		Iraq's legal institutions have been very highly secularized for a very long time, since the foundation of the modern state of Iraq in the 1920s and its independence in 1932.
		There are large secularizing influences in Iraqi society, even emanating from the highest traditions of the, for instance the Shia clergy the late Grand Ayatollah al-Khoi established as a matter of Islamic religious law, at least under the… in the Shia world, the necessity for the separation between mosque and state.

	Joel Mowbray on State Department & Iraq on National Review Online
		aul Bremer, the U.S. civilian administrator in Iraq, is now facing underhanded attempts at undermining his agenda from State Department officials in Baghdad, with one referring to his sweeping de-Baathification policies as "fascistic," according to an informed source in Iraq.
		The senior administrator who made the comment, Robin Rafael, is not alone in her sentiments, as several other Foggy Bottom officials stationed in the country are trying to covertly remake Iraq as they want it, not as Bremer — or the president who sent him there — wants it.
		When Bremer's selection of several State officials was announced last month, one administration official suggested that the civilian administrator was trying to "keep his enemies closer." Whether or not that was the intent, it certainly seems that that is what Bremer has gotten.
