Chalabi Acuses the US of abusing and "Provoking Iran"

[jmc247]

In other news, al-Hayat reported that Ahmad Chalabi, who lobbied aggressively in Washington in favor of the Iraq invasion in 2003, made critical comments about US policy and accused the US of “provoking Iran.”

Chalabi, the ex-vice Prime Minister and current chair of the “de-Ba'thification” commission, attacked a proposed law that is designed to replace current de-Ba'thification policies and said that it was drafted by Khalilzad, the ex-US ambassador in Iraq.

Chalabi claimed that Khalilzad had presented him with Arabic and English versions of the law on March 30th, “several days before it was presented to the parliament by the President’s and Prime Minister’s offices.”

Chalabi also said that American accusation against Iran, claiming that the Islamic Republic is attempting to “destabilize” Iraq, are “unfair and unrealistic.” He also pointed to several incidents of American “provocation” against Iran; including the “kidnapping” of Iranian diplomats, raids on Iranian diplomatic offices and the arrest of Iranian citizens who visit Iraq. “Meanwhile, Iranians feel threatened by 150,000 American-led soldiers in Iraq,” Chalabi said.
