UN envoy slams US-led invasion: "'The war in Iraq was useless, it caused more problems than it solved, and it brought in terrorism,' said Brahimi, in Austria for an official visit.
The UN official said he believed Iraq could eventually become a normal country, but that 'the question is, how long that will take and how much it will cost. So far the cost has been very high.'
Iraq's interim government, he said, faced a challenge in proving that it was not 'a puppet of the Americans, which is difficult to do when there are 150,000 foreign soldiers in the country.' "
