Talabani: ‘Everybody's agent' heads Iraq
What many of us have been predicting for years continues to sickeningly unfold. The Anglo-American pillage of Iraq continues, by hook and by crook, with the emphasis on world-class crooks, compradors, functionaries and intelligence assets.
Now Jalal Talabani, "everybody's agent" is interim president. (See short bio below, from a report written way back in October 2002, prior to the US invasion.)
One by one—Chalabi, Allawi, Talabani, Jaffari, etc.---the US will prop up puppet after puppet, pouring more kerosene on the fire.
Those who wish to keep their eyes on the reality should read:

Part Two: The CIA and the Iraqi/Kurd opposition groups

Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK)
The PUK was established in the 1960s by its current leader, Jalal Talabani, a former member of the KDP. A master opportunist, he has earned a reputation as "everybody's agent." PUK's primary goal is the removal of Saddam Hussein, and the establishment of a Kurdish state.
According to Al-Kurdi, the PUK "posits a 'modern' approach to Kurdish politics, cooking Kurdish interests in every conceivable sauce, with flavors meant to edify and attract supporters among the governments of Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, the United States, and a host of others. The PUK leader Talabani has openly courted Israel, the United States, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Saddam Hussein and Turkey, entering in a variety of "understandings" with all of these states in recent times."
