AS the nature of the US war for democracy in Iraq becomes ever more clear in its political execution, it is worth contemplating the methodology of its benefaction. On Tuesday, we learn, the American choice for president of Iraq, Adnan Pachachi, was to be offered the job by the hand-picked Governing Council in the knowledge that he would decline - avoiding an outright rebuff to the Fount of all Human Freedom. This allowed nomination of its own preferred candidate, Ghazi Yawar.
The council was immediately dissolved on the instruction of "Administrator" Paul Bremer, who had apparently tried to stop it from meeting when he heard it would reject the US-favoured Pachachi. Earlier this week, the council appointed as prime minister a man with "links" to the CIA and MI6. (It is good to see that ...

Shafiq Rasul From their legal limbo in Camp Delta, the US detention centre at Guantanamo Bay, five British detainees will soon be winging their way back to Britain after spending more than two years in the grim military facility in Cuba. During that time they were neither charged by the US authorities nor allowed any legal representation, a state of affairs which has been widely condemned by international human rights organisations as an affront to justice. It should be a time of rejoicing for their families and supporters. Under most circumstances the men's release would be universally welcomed - the exact date has not been agreed - but ahead lies a legal minefield which will test to the full the special relationship between Britain and the US.
