I was watching the Baghdad happening on TV regarding the formation of the new government in Iraq....Back of my mind I was saying 'What new government!!' they all are the same people that were in the Iraq Governing Council appointed by the US..... All the weeks the world waited for the announcement by the United nation's representative, Lakhdar Brahimi....But then when the announcement came....It just look like there were nothing new in the line up of the 'new' government..... Most of those people that are in the government now were living in foreign countries when Saddam rule, so I do not believe that they have the knowledge of local politic and skill to guide Iraq to a new democracy in the year to come......So actually we are back to square one.....So where do we go from here.... I still believe that the best for Iraq is for the United Nations to take full responsibility in the formation of a new government..... First there should be a new resolution to give the United Nations the mandate to take charge.... The first task is to conduct an election as soon as possible and at the same time the present troops lead by the US should leave Iraq and replaced by troops from countries selected by the United Nations....These UN troops should not includes the present troops from countries that join the occupier in Iraq now..... Without the American and the British troops and it advisers around,would bring some trust from the Iraqi populations, thus making its easy for the United Nation to work in Iraq ..... The Iraqi people are from a great civilization and have many learned and people of wisdom.... The population are largely literate and an intelligent lots, so I believe, just like us they all want to live in peace and harmony..... Let be sincere about this and lets give the people of Iraq a chance. As for the present government which was formed, I am not that optimistic about it.... We all have to wait and see what happen...Hope it do not just turn out like another Afghanistan now......
