Does the Iraqi Interim Government need to Approve
Printable Version | [eMail this article!] |Yesterday U.S. Jets Attack Fallujah Safe House in an attempt to "take out" Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (a suspected al Qaeda leader). I read all the way through the article twice, but I couldn't find where the Iraqi interim government had given approval for the US to launch missiles into Falluja. Are ongoing attacks by "coalition forces" grandfathered into the Iraqi constitution?

Posted by: Bill Whitlatch at July 1, 2004 09:45 AM- the UN resolution and Congressional authorization for force to be applied in Iraq both sanction the strike(s) - note the fancy rhetoric i used with which to cloak a killing industry, though no doubt the other side of this polarity could quote some eloqent verses from Al Qu'ran with which to cloak their killing - really, what is the difference? The simplicity of one pilot pushing one button from an airplane or some jihadist pushing a button to remotely detonate an IED on the side of the road with equal results - equal committment and sense of righteousness of both sides - one man's terrorist is another's saviour, distinguished by attire and language only?? Both sides use the same vehicles to justify their actions - both invoke higher powers to aid their fight - both seek control of the oil revenues
