		<description>I am sure Jabbar al Lueby&#039;s recalcitrance contributed mightily to his own demise as DG of the South Oil Company, however, replacing him will be far more complicated than just appointing another man, even a very qualified man. Assuming that his replacement as DG stands, I hope he takes the Advisor job with the MoO as there is no one in Iraq, who can contribute more to standing up a functional MoO; something that has failed to happen under several Ministers, in the 5 years subsequent to the fall of Saddam.  Whatever else Jabbar may or may not be today, he was the glue that held South Iraq&#039;s oil and electricity sectors together for several months following March 2003.  I know first hand in those early days following March 2003 that his ability to communicate with Coalition Officials, his leadership of the South Oil Company employees, his ability to coordinate with management of the Refinery and power companies and his connections with local tribal leaders were key components of the relatively quick restoration of power and oil production in the South.  He seemed to be everywhere at once in a very hazardous environment.  During his movements he received no personal security assistance from the Coalition.  His politics are not currently correct, and he is known for being strong willed, self-centered and uncooperative unless forced.   Having said that, in my mind he should be a national hero in Iraq. He survived and thrived, while helping a lot of others do likewise; this in a very dangerous area during very dangerous times where political power kept shifting. I am not saying he may not have done things that are illegal under Iraqi law or pass the smell test to those of us accustomed to Western standards of ethics, however, in 2003, he was the right man in the right place at the right time. Baghdad can take his title from him, but taking his power will prove more problematic, as he has markers from a lot of people up and down the chain among the power brokers in the South.</description>
