Powell's presentation would be behind closed doors... to preserve intelligence sources

I think that is a nice try, but anything you say in public WILL be told. Closed doors or open doors, the UN is a sieve. The only way to preserve intelligence sources is to keep your mouth shut. UN approval is not worth the cost of compromising our intelligence.

And I know from personal experience that it's a bummer when your intelligence is compromised...;-)
