Is Ahmad Chalabi really going to get the boot? Then again, he has all those files with which to blackmail people, presumably beyond those that have already been alleged to have been on Saddam's payroll. Bremer's office would do well to seize those archives and put them under more neutral control, before the June 30 handover. Maybe Chalabi can start anew as the head of an Iraqi NGO to investigate and ward against the insidious effects of nepotism in post-Saddam Iraq?
