Gerhard is warning us about "repetition" of the Iraqi War:

He called for a quickest transition of power in Iraq to a democratically elected government, while describing the debate in the United States on partition of the reconstruction contracts in Iraq as "macabre".

�@�@He said efforts must now be made to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe in Iraq.

�@�@However, Schroeder did not rule out the possibility of Germany's participation in a UN-led peace-keeping mission in Iraq, saying that his country would never shun offering help.

Read: making money with no work. Schroeder is a piece of work.
