	Dossier: Lakhdar Brahimi (June/July 2004)
		Lakhdar Brahimi was born in 1934 to a wealthy family living south of Algiers.
		After leaving the Arab League, Brahimi served from 1971 to 1979 as Algerian ambassador to the United Kingdom, an important post as the FLN was anxious to diminish the country's economic dependence on France and the UK was seen as a natural counter-weight.
		Brahimi's American critics argued that, as a former member of Algeria's governing elite, Brahimi was too wedded to the region's authoritarian political culture to supervise a democratic transition in Iraq.

		BRAHIMI: You see, the most important factor that you need to satisfy before you start talking about dates for an election is the legal framework.

		Brahimi was the author of the Taif Agreement, which then permanently legitimated this occupation of Lebanon, by a Syrian Ba'athist regime which remains among the most murderously evil that exists.
		Brahimi allowed his "peace brokering" between Taliban and Northern Alliance to be used as a front for the Taliban and Al Qaeda to launch a successful surprise military thrust into Northern Alliance territory.
		Brahimi has already persuaded the Bush administration to disband, before the June 30th turnover to local rule, the provisional governing council which has been the most diversely representative ruling body in the Arab world.

	U.N. Envoy Lakhdar Brahimi - Can he save Iraq? By Chris Suellentrop (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Brahimi's mandate in Iraq is much smaller than the ones given to Garner and Bremer as U.S. administrators, and his diplomatic record suggests that he'll be able to craft a solution that's acceptable to most of the squabbling parties.
		Brahimi served as Algeria's foreign-affairs minister from 1991 to 1993, and during that time the Algerian government canceled elections out of fear that Islamic theocrats would win them.
		Most frequently cited as damning is Brahimi's silence, as an official with the Arab League from 1984 to 1991 and later as Algeria's foreign minister, during Saddam's massacres of those Kurds and Shiites.

	What the UN Envoy, Lakhdar Brahimi Actually Said
		Brahimi is a man who warned America about its mistakes in Afghanistan, and he is now telling America that things are going wrong in Iraq and that our policies and behaviors must change.
		Another matter that Brahimi and the UN would face is the fact of the contracts that Chalabi, Bremer and the American regime has let in Iraq that are now in force and could be continued when Americans are allegedly giving up sovereignty to Iraq.
		Brahimi also agreed with Sistani, that the Sadr matter should be dealt with by the Iraqis, but not by the American puppet Iraqis of the Governing Council or by the American appointed "judges,"or by the U.S. military.

		On the other hand, H.E. Lakhdar Brahimi, called Bremer what he was, “a dictator.” In diplomatic language that was as strong as possible, he made clear that he was upset with what Bush and his team had done to sabotage his work and his honorable plans for Iraqi freedom and democracy.
		Brahimi made his designs clear, but then was stabbed in the back by President Bush, Paul Bremer and the IGC, when these men conspired and put members of the Iraqi Vichy IGC in control of the new government of Iraq, from the Prime Minister Iyad to the new “president”, Yawar.
		Brahimi preferred to do the proper thing, in the eyes of God and in the eyes of man, shunning further possible rewards that could have come to him had he lied or countenanced the Bush, Bremer, IGC lies and misbehavior.

	Lakhdar Brahimi,Washington’s Friend-in-Need, Gains Credibility in Iraq
		Brahimi is reported to have quipped that he did not say it, and it was not true, he had shaken hands with Israelis—but was unlikely to repeat the experience with the Israeli ambassador.
		Brahimi’s plan for Iraq—still very much a work in progress—so far seems very much like an Iraqi version of the Loya Jirga he resurrected in Afghanistan: a National Council of a thousand Iraqis, with a president and two vice presidents to steer the country to elections.
		Brahimi’s picking the new National Council and disbanding the occupation-appointed Iraqi Governing Council, on behalf of the U.N., are an essential part of breaking the chain of Quislinghood that otherwise would forever haunt ensuing Iraqi governments.
