Remember how the US ridiculed the election of Saddam as nothing but a hoax? Consider that L. Paul Bremer’s plan for installing a new constitution in Iraq seems to rule out the possibility that it will be rejected: “Once written, the constitution will be widely circulated, discussed and debated among the Iraqi people. All adult Iraqis will have the opportunity to vote for or against it. For the first time in history, Iraq will have a permanent constitution written by and approved by the Iraqi people.”
