Negroponte pressed Powell to pressure Chile’s and Mexico’s weak-willed leaders to discharge their U.N. ambassadors over Iraq votes.

· Negroponte has sordid human rights record in Honduras.

· A Cruel Joke: Negroponte, the arch authoritarian, teaching democracy to the Iraqis.

· Senate Foreign Relations Committee unlikely to closely scrutinize Negroponte nomination.

· Life under Saddam should prepare Iraqis for the Negroponte era.
