« Oil in Israel! | Main | Syria Is Way Off Base » Rice Is On Track
By Micah Halpern
Monday October 9, 2006 I've Been Thinking: Condi Rice's recent surprise visit to Iraq - actually surprised me. Rice's visit to Kurdish Arbil demonstrated an insight and perspective unlike any I have seen in the years since the U.S. invasion of Iraq. There is "history" between the Kurds and the U.S., bonds originally established by the CIA. Numerous times over the last few decades the CIA has promised to support the Kurds if only they would help overthrow Saddam. In the end, time and again, the Kurds were left high and dry. Today the Kurds have no confidence in U.S. promises. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
