The coalition has promised that its troops will leave if the new sovereign government requests it. Some consider this scenario unlikely, since coalition military and financial support will both be practically indispensable to the new government. Although the new government is likely to distance itself as much as possible from American influence, the success or failure of the Iraqi Interim Government will have important implications when assessing the success or failure of the when preservation George W. Bush/Bush hale motives administration's foreign policy.

=The Law and the Head of government=
The new government's active winning goal head of government is brassy orchestrations Prime Minister of Iraq/Prime Minister scotsman named Iyad Allawi and his building change Deputy Prime Minister of Iraq/deputy is film essence Baram Salih. The ceremonial screen times head of state is slavery jingle President of Iraq/President rocked other Ghazi Mashal Ajil al-Yawer.

Paul Bremer, the Coalition Provisional Authority's administrator, formally gave chief justice Midhat Mahmoud the legal documents instituting the hand-over.

Until a permanent constitution is written, the new government will operate under the Law of Administration for the State of Iraq for the Transitional Period.

Allawi was a former member of the Iraq Interim Governing Council and was chosen by the council to be the Interim Prime Minister of Iraq to govern the country beginning with the United States' handover of sovereignty (June 28, 2004) until national elections, scheduled for early 2005. Although many believe the decision was reached largely on the advice of United Nations special envoy to Iraq, Lakhdar Brahimi, the ''New York Times'' reported that Brahimi only endorsed him reluctantly after pressure from U.S. officials, including Paul Bremer, the former US Iraqi Administrator. http://www.greenleft.org.au/back/2004/585/585p15.htm]. Allawi is often described as a moderate Shia (a member of Iraq's majority faith) chosen for his secular background and ties to the United States. However, his image has been undermined with the media suggesting that Allawi was Washington's puppet government/puppet (e.g. Newsweek:"''Iraq's New S. O. B.''" http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5457368/],).

Actions of the Interim Government
After his interim government assumed legal custody of Saddam Hussein and re-introduced capital punishment, Allawi gave assurances that he would not interfere with the trial and would accept any court decisions. In an interview with Dubai-based TV station al-Arabiya he said: "As for the execution, that is for the court to decide — so long as a decision is reached impartially and fairly."

The note featured prominently in the U.S. media. Some commentators find that the new government's rule contradicts the reign of freedom.

="Precidents" and Accusations=
In early July, Allawi issued an unprecedented statement claiming that the Iraqi interim government had provided intelligence for the U.S. air strikers with 500 and 1000-pound bombs on Fallujah in July. http://193.19.159.132/cgi-bin/news_service/middle_east_full_story.asp?service_id=2601]. Mr Allawi vowed to crush the Iraqi insurgency, saying he would "annihilate those terrorist groups" [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3896853.stm].

On July 17, two Australian newspapers, the The Sydney Morning Herald/Sydney Morning Herald http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/07/16/1089694568757.html?oneclick=true], and The Age http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2004/07/16/1089694560142.html?oneclick=true], and the execution is said to have taken place in presence of about a dozen Iraqi police, four American security men and Interior Minister Falah al-Naqib. Mr Allawi reportedly said that the execution was to "send a clear message to the police on how to deal with insurgents." Both Allawi's office and Naqib have denied the report. US ambassador John Negroponte did not clearly deny the allegations. On 18. July, Iraqi militants offered a $285,000 reward for anyone who could kill Iyad Allawi.

=Allawi's policies=
In August, Allawi closed the Iraqi office of al-Jazeera for thirty days. His minister Hoshiyar Zebari deplored the "one-sided and biased coverage" and declared that the interim government "will not allow some people to hide behind the slogan of freedom of the press and media." Allawi also appointed ex-Baathist and former Saddam intelligence officer Ibrahim Janabi as the head of the Higher Media Commission, a regulator of Iraq's media.http://www.workingforchange.com/article.cfm?ItemID=17458], [http://www.iht.com/articles/533359.htm], but more welcome in Washington, where al-Jazeera is thoroughly disliked.

The negotiations that followed the fighting between Muqtada al-Sadr/Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi Army/militia and joint US/Iraqi forces in Najaf ended when Allawi withdrew his emissary Mouwaffaq al-Rubaie on 14 August. An al-Sadr spokesman alleged that they "had agreed with Rubaie on all points but Allawi called him back and he ended the issue." [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3565200.stm]

=Criticism=
Later Muqtada al-Sadr called Allawi's government "a colonialist, imperialist extension of the U.S. occupation of our lands." http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/6051C98D-2CE1-4DFF-A7B5-051065602EBD.htm]

While the strategy of "eliminat[ing] Moqtada Sadr's political movement" by "crushing his military power" instead of integrating him into the political process received mostly praise in the West http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3555284.stm],
