Robert Dreufuss: Chalabi-faktoren i Irak
Robert Dreyfuss i The Nation (via ICH) om neocon’ernes irakiske helt, Ahmed Chalabi:

Unfortunately, Chalabi and his allies, including the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq and the Islamic Dawa Party — that would be the party of Prime Minister Maliki, who supports the purge — were Iran’s friends and allies, and in some cases, outright agents. Oops!
