Members of Iraq's U.S.-appointed governing council are resisting plans to establish an interim government that would supplant the council when sovereignty is transferred in Iraq at the end of June. Some members of the council are sharply critical of U.N. envoy Lakhdar Brahimi, who has been given the lead role in setting up the interim government. NPR's Philip Reeves reports.
