Great Ideas in Iraq Reconstruction

Iraq's parliament adopted legislation Saturday on the reinstatement of thousands of former supporters of Saddam Hussein's Baath party to government jobs, a key benchmark sought by the United States as a step toward easing sectarian tensions.
"Sought by the United States"? The positive news out of Iraq is that the US supports others resolving problems it created.

"The US" supports the party they removed from power? If "the US" has an opinion, it should be in support of its own actions. The whole reason "the US" didn't take out Saddam Hussein before is because they said that someone just like him would take his place. Evidently, I am not included in "the US", because this is nonsense.
