former US stooge chalabi is now getting the pay back for starting to speak out against the US.
what next? this was the guy touted as leading the new Iraq.
The INC has received millions of dollars from the US since its foundation in the 1990s.
But US officials said on Tuesday the Pentagon had cut off some $340,000 a month in funding to the party - payments that were made in part for intelligence gathered by the INC.
Deputy defence secretary Paul Wolfowitz said the decision “was made in light of the process of transferring sovereignty to the Iraqi people”.
On Wednesday Mr Chalabi said in a BBC interview that Iraqis should have complete control over oil, development and property currently in US hands.
“The Iraqi Governing Council will clearly define what sovereignty means,” he told Radio 4’s Today programme.
In an angry outburst on Thursday, he said: “Let my people go. Let my people be free. It is time for the Iraqi people to run their affairs.”
Is this what happens to US friendly Iraqi’s who start to turn against the occupation?
