This is what's coming from the interim President of Iraq Ghazi al-Yawer. This is the same guy who said this about a military assault on Fallujah "The way the coalition is managing the crisis is wrong. It is as if someone shot his horse in the head to kill a fly that landed on it. The fly flies away and the horse dies." If this guy is the President of Iraq, will someone tell me why no one in the Administration seems to want to listen to him?
From AP:
Iraq's interim President Ghazi al-Yawer warned in an interview published Monday that long-term instability and violence in his country could create the conditions for an "Iraqi Hitler" to emerge.But hey, everything is going great in Iraq, and we've got 70 year olds being called up for duty. Oh yeah, everything is going great.
"If the situation in Iraq will continue like this, it will create within the Iraqi people feelings of bitterness, rage and humiliation which will provide, in the long run, an appropriate environment for an Iraqi Hitler to appear similar to the German Hitler who emerged after Germany's defeat and the humiliation of the German people in World War I," al-Yawer was quoted as saying in the London-based Asharq al-Awsat newspaper.
In a separate interview in London, where al-Yawer made a brief stop after visiting the United States, the interim president said the U.S.-led coalition was wrong to dismantle the Iraqi security forces after last year's invasion.
"Definitely dissolving the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Interior was a big mistake at that time," al-Yawer told British Broadcasting Corp. radio.
"We could have screened people out instead of screening them in, and this could have saved us a lot of hassle and problems," he said.
