Talk:Coalition Provisional Authority

message: Can anyone prove that there were any Non-American employees of the CPA. From what I've read and seen all employees that weren't food prepares working for contractors were Americans, specifically politically-connected Americans, especially executives and their assistants. I see here a list of 'members of the cpa' I don't ever recall seeing in any article or documentary anything other than the CPA being a creation of the President of the United States, and administered by an American proconsul, namely L. Paul Bremer III, named by the president. I also see that said list is uncited, which adds to my point. It's as if someone arbitrarily decided that anyone named as a member of the 'coalition of the willing' :) was part of the CPA, when that is factually and demonstrably not the case.
: The CPA had security personnel and administrative personnel from all the member nations present in Iraq.  The list was originally compiled from info on the original CPA website.  Please remember to sign your discussion posts.  Brian1975 14:11, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You seem to be interested in what is "facutally and demonstrably not the case," but seem unconcerned you have no references for your "facts," other than what you have "read and seen."  What are your reading sources, and when did you do any direct observation? The contractor who provided laundry and dry cleaning services for the CPA had numerous East European employees.  Most non-military security guards in the Green Zone, not including diplomatic security, were not American. CPA members included individuals from many nations.  In the Ministry of Transportation, for example, the person responsibile for facilities as a Dane.  While political connections played a role for the selection of some senior personnel, the head of the railroad construction across the country was a stauch democrat.  He and many others were chosen purely on their expertise (he had a career in the rail industry) and desire to help the Iraqis reconstitute their economy, without reqard to their political views.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Businessdr (talk • contribs) 17:54, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
