I must have made a mistake I thought I read somewhere that in the UN resolution giving the Coalition forces (led by the United States) powers of occupation and reconstruction, including access to frozen accounts and oil export.
In which it clearly states that the coalition mandate was to expire on Dec. 31, 2005, unless a democratically elected government backed by a constitution asks them to stay on for security.
Why would we not agree to this since we will be gone by the end of the year anyway? |
