A Post-War Network
A California lawmaker wants to make sure American technology is used in the wake of an American victory in Iraq, but his effort to control cellular technology in the Middle East nation is being called ill-advised and self-serving by critics.
Late last month, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., proposed a bill to Congress, H.R. 1441, that would require the use of CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) technology in lieu of GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) technology for any federally funded efforts to build a cell phone network in post-war Iraq.
