For now, a retired American gen eral has taken charge of an Arab country, as Douglas MacArthur did in Japan after World War II and MacArthur’s father did in the Philippines after the Spanish-American War. Garner, though, said he has no inten tion of leading Iraq. “The new ruler of Iraq is going to be an Iraqi. I don’t rule anything,” he said. He was careful to frame his mission in humanitarian terms: “What better day in your life can you have,” he said, “than to be able to help somebody else, to help other people, and that is what we intend to do.” After his arrival, he visited Baghdad’s 1,000-bed Yarmuk hospital, which was overwhelmed with Iraqi casualties in the final days of the war and then stripped by looters. “We will help you, but it is going W take time,” he told doctors. His Office of Reconstruction and Humanitarian Aid is to coordinate emer gency aid to the 24 million Iraqis and over see the rebuilding of the nation’s infra structure and establishment of an interini|| Iraqi government. That last, crucial goal was challenged Monday by Iran, which said it would no! recognize any government installed by America.
