but the other piece of this puzzle is what do the iraqi people want. and we have a status of forces agreement that has a deadline for the withdrawal of u.s. troops, so tha uh, is going to be probably more important than what americans think. >> you know, that, that leads me to ask this question. can a country that has invaded another be the peace builder in that country? is there some sort of disconnect in that case? now former yugoslavia is a different situation and there are other situations that are quite different, but in iraq, can the peace builder be the same nation that initiated the conflict? >> i think it makes it more difficult when you've, uh, imposed that peace and invaded a country. ideally, when the parties to the conflict, uh, negotiate a peace and arrive at a solution that they can agree with, that's the best situation upon which to build. but when, uh, you impose the peace and you are identified as the invader, as we are, and we used to have a coalition of coerced and co-opted countries that joined us in the invasion, but i think we're
