Iraqis to Write Iraqi constitution

Appointed Minister of Justice, Hashim Abdel Rahman Chalabi, said in Bahrain according to al-Hayat that the new Iraqi constitution would be entirely the creation of Iraqis, and that no foreign jurists would be involved in drafting it. After the story we just heard about the commercial laws, one wonders whether such categorical statements have much credibility. Meanwhile, the temporary president of the Interim Governing Council, Ahmad Chalabi, stopped in Kuwait on his way to the UN and promised the Kuwaitis that the new Iraq recognizes them and their border in accordance with UN resolutions.
