IRAQ
Fighting Over the Spoils
In the heavyweight prizefight over Iraq's future, the winner of round one seems to be Secretary of State Colin Powell. For months the Bush administration has been deeply split over how to move from a U.S. military occupation to a new government run by Iraqis. One of the biggest rifts is over what the role of Iraqi exiles--led by the London- based Iraqi National Congress--will be in the newly liberated Baghdad. While some Pentagon officials support a prominent role for the INC and its controversial leader, Ahmed Chalabi, Powell's State Department and the CIA favor a government led by Iraqis currently living in Iraq.
