the more i think about the scenario in iraq, the more i think that the americans have no obvious way out except to transnationalise the reconstruction process and so to make it into a reconstruction process and not an occupation modality--i woudl not be surprised if it in the end will require that the americans back out of it almost altogether, which would include ceding control of the oil. otherwise, i do not see how reconstruction and occupation are to be separated and so how anything good the americans might say they are doing will come to fruitition.
