"The [New York] Times, in a front-page story last week, re****ted that
the U.S. military was setting up "permanent" bases in Iraq intimating,
of course, that we will be occupying the country forever. I read the
story and it seems as if it was cooly calculated to inflame the
Iraqis. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld countered that the re****t
was totally and completely false, angrily condemning this kind of fear-
mongering, "Henny Penny" re****ting. Henny is a character in the
children's tale about Chicken Little, who claimed that "the sky is
falling." It wasn't, it isn't and it won't. We are going to repair the
damage done to Iraq, help the Iraqi people start a government, and
then get out of there as soon as we can."

"Iraqi lawmakers say the United States is demanding 58 bases as part
of a proposed "status of forces" agreement that will allow U.S. troops
to remain in the country indefinitely. . . . "
