...project of Wolfowitz's, the organization consists of a group of exiled Iraqi technocrats sympathetic to Chalabi who have been feverishly planning how to restart everything from irrigation to trash collection to oil production as soon as the fighting stops. When they get the word from Garner, they will deploy as liaisons between his temporary American ministers and those Iraqis deemed salvageable from Saddam's sprawling bureaucracy. Over a period of three to six months, the U.S. bosses will hand over their ministries to the I.I.A. as they show their ability to work on their own. That means Chalabi supporters...
