About Ahmed.


If you want to understand how weird it is that the U.S. just installed convicted embezzler Ahmed Chalabi as the new head of the Iraqi oil ministry, try this piece by Andrew Cockburn.

Yes, it's a year and a half old, but look at it this way -- Chalabi's a year and a half even more corrupt than what you read there. Hard to believe.
