8. Its "Total Sovereignty"...with one, tiny exception: 140,000 troops...

...and 40,000 contract mercenaries... will occupy the country, backed with armor and tactical air support. They can go anywhere they want, whenever they want and apprehend, kill or execute anyone they want.

And there isn't a thing the Iraqis can do to stop or punish them.

This will be one sorry brand of freedom.

And Maybe Gerald Ford was right in the 1976 debates...Poland WAS free from Soviet domination in 1976.
