Much of the aid destined for Iraq will come from the United States. It is that country alone which has the resources and the know-how to rebuild Iraq. Indeed, I would argue that it has a moral duty to rebuild Iraq, to heal the wounds of this war, the previous Gulf War and decades of Saddam Hussein's misrule. We should not stand in America's way. We should do all we can with the international community to help rebuild Iraq after the war and to promote democracy so it is a country where citizens need never be afraid to speak their minds and where diversity of religion, culture and thought are not only tolerated but encouraged.
