ネグロポンテがイラク大使に任命する予定だ。
ネグロポンテ国連大使は、イラン・コントラ時代にホンジュラス大使としてCIAのニカラグア・コントラ支援、ドラッグ運搬で重要な役割を担った男だ。イラク攻撃を早々に視野に入れていたブッシュにとって、国連大使のポジションが重要であることはわかっていただろう。
国連石油食料交換プロジェクトのサダム賄賂解明については「アメリカの調査努力は妨害された上、昨年の戦争と現在の混乱で書類が失われ、まとめるのが 非常に困難になっている」ロシア、フランス、中国に罪をなすりつけチェイニーを守った。
国連盗聴活動も忘れられない。
そしてネグロポンテは「死の部隊」手配のテロリストでもある。
ブッシュのイラク政策には打ってつけということだろう。
Bush names Negroponte ambassador to Iraq

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush says he will nominate John Negroponte, the top American diplomat at the
United Nations, to serve in the "very difficult job" of ambassador to Iraq after the planned hand-over of sovereignty on June 30.
Negroponte will essentially replace civilian administrator Paul Bremer as the top U.S. official in Iraq, where U.S. forces recently have faced
their toughest fighting since toppling ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein a year ago.
The position, subject to Senate confirmation, is of enormous sensitivity ahead of the planned hand-over of sovereignty and the November 2
U.S. presidential election.
"John Negroponte is a man of enormous experience and skill. That's why I'm comfortable in asking him to serve in this very difficult
assignment," Bush told reporters in the Oval Office.
With Negroponte at his side, Bush said, there is "no doubt in my mind he can handle it, no doubt in my mind he will do a very good job, and
there's no doubt in my mind that Iraq will be free and democratic and peaceful."
An administration official said Negroponte was likely to go to Iraq "to get ready" before the June 30 hand-over, but that a date has yet to be
set.
A career foreign service officer who worked in Vietnam, Honduras, Mexico and the Philippines, Negroponte was an executive for
McGraw-Hill before being lured back into public service as ambassador to the United Nations in 2001.
He helped craft Security Council resolution 1441 giving Iraq one last chance to disarm. While that resolution passed unanimously, the Bush
administration failed to get a second resolution giving an explicit U.N. blessing to last year's U.S.-led invasion. It then largely sidelined the body
despite calling for it to play a "vital" role in Iraq.
The United States would like the United Nations to play a greater role in Iraq after the hand-over, and Negroponte's time as U.S.
ambassador to the world body is seen a big plus in appointing him to the new job as U.S. envoy in Iraq.
While at the United Nations, Bush said, Negroponte has done a "really good job of speaking for the United States to the world about our
intentions to spread freedom and peace."
