Violence, incompetence, instability

Article Abstract:

The provisional authority appointed by the U.S occupation forces in Iraq is facing local hostility and violent insurgency. In the absence of stable political and social foundations, the provisional authority needs to decide whether it has the resources to tackle the structural problems dominating Iraqi politics or change the existing leadership and leave them to govern the country.
