WASHINGTON (AFP) - Former US administrator in Iraq Paul Bremer clashed in print with George W. Bush Tuesday, rejecting the US president's suggestion in an interview that he was unaware of Bremer's plan to disband the Iraqi army.
In one of six interviews with Robert Draper for the book "Dead Certain," Bush said US policy had been "to keep the army intact" but that it "didn't happen," The New York Times reported.
Asked how he reacted when he learned that the policy was being reversed, Bush told Draper, "Yeah, I can't remember, I'm sure I said, 'This is the policy, what happened?'" the Times report added.
He "can't remember"?? I find this a bit hard to swallow....
Go Bremer Dinars!
