Bootz & Tony Draper et al, surely it's about decorum. This was, afetr all, one of the most historic moments in Iraq probably since SH came to power. I for one would have preferred a bit more dignity and respect. I certainly don't think a diplomat of the standing of Bremmer should have played to a sycophantic audience whoopin' & hollerin' and giving each other high fives. Whatever SH has done (and we know it ain't pleasant) he's still a human being deserving of all the dignity and respect we're constantly being told he never gave to his enemies. We're better than that and it should have showed. That's it, the soap box is away until the next rant is required!!
