- <p> In secret talks with U.S. officials, Iraqi Shi`ite Muslim
- opposition leaders have been told that Saddam Hussein could be
- replaced by a pro-West military junta sometime this summer. The
- prospect has prompted some Shi`ites to discard their historic
- anti-U.S. stance in the hope of taking part in a power-sharing
- arrangement with a future military regime. "We can get on with
- the Americans," asserts a European-based opposition leader. "We
- worked closely with the Russians for 40 years. What did it get
- us? Garbage: antiquated weapons, outdated industrial goods and
- a lame economy."
