  New Statesman - The stooge of Baghdad
A real puppet government would have had drums and a specially trained squad of Iraqi pipers in kilts skirtling back and forth for the cameras as the massed ranks of carefully screened dignitaries watched the sad choreography.
To be successful, a puppet ruler must offer his cowed people the lesser of two evils - the "benign" repression of his own security forces, in contrast to the outright brutality of the imperial legions.
