Hillary Rebuked by Iraqi Leader

"Hillary Clinton, as far as I know, does not represent any political decision or the American administration, and I don't know why she said this," Dr. Ibrahim Jafari, who is expected to become prime minister, told the Times of London on Thursday.

"She knows nothing about the Iraqi situation," he added. "


Watch for it. Watch for some inta-resting rumors to begin rumbling in Europe. Of course, agreeing with Mrs. Clinton. Of course, it could show up here just as easily.

Oh! So sorry, what did Mrs. Clinton say?

During an interview last Sunday, Clinton complained about Jafari's nomination by the duly elected Shia coalition.
"I think that there are grounds both for concern and for, you know, vigilance about this," she told NBC's "Meet the Press." "It is a historical fact that he, along with the Dawa Party, have had connections with Iran . . . There are also family ties and religious ties."


For closure: It appears:

The Bush administration has not expressed concerns similar to Mrs. Clinton's, said the New York Sun, which first reported Dr. Jafari's comments in the U.S.


I can hear the socialist rumblings. Call it an "omen": "Dr. Jafari is a Bush Plant!"

And of course, I've been bemusing how a "fact finding" bunch of Senators can consider themselves experts in the Iraqi situation after a few days there....

But, of course, Billary is an expert on ALL things, isn't she?
