Ignoring what Iraqis say they want or need, the team pursues irrelevant neoconservative solutions and pie-in-the-sky policies instead of rebuilding looted buildings and restoring electricity. Their almost comic initiatives anger the locals and fuel the insurgency. 650 0 $a Postwar reconstruction $z Iraq. 650 0 $a Iraq War, 2003 650 0 $a Political corruption $z United States. 651 0 $a Iraq $x History $y 2003- 651 0 $a Coalition Provisional Authority. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 2001- 655 0 $a Audiobooks. 700 1 $a Porter, Ray. 939 $a 5811851 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l SKPC094 $d 20190504012723.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9FFAC42C2B0F11DEAA7E7608A8D7520AInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
