The Iraqi Elections Were An Important First

A Colossal Event Is Upon Us, The Birth Of A New World Order.

I Believe The Chinese Are Gradually Realizing That They're Dependent On The System That, As They Run Out Of Energy, For Example, They Have To Reach Out To Foreign Sources For Energy, For Raw Materials. They Have To Reach Out To The World For Markets. They Have To Export. They Have To Maintain Full Employment. They've Got A Terrible Population Problem. So They Need A Stable World, In A Way.

To Sum Up, The Position We Took Was That Since We Didn't Know The Internal Situation In Iraq Nor Saddam Hussein, That Our Best Bet Was To Take Counsel From The People Who Did Know Him And Who Did Deal With Him.

You Know, Different People Are Going To React Different Ways. And I Don't Think We Should Be Intolerable Because People Do Things A Little Differently.

We Believe We Are Creating The Beginning Of A New World Order Coming Out Of The Collapse Of The Us-soviet Antagonisms.
