the UN would oversee the establishment of a post-Saddam government and the UN, not the US, would take stewardship of Iraq's oilfields.

Sure, throw it in. Saddam won't take it, and such a result would be an unmitigated disaster, but if it makes the UN vote for a force resolution, so be it.

Desperate, aren't they?

BTW, did anybody ask them why, if Saddam is cooperating and disarming, this is necessary?

Ummm, couldn't the US just veto this part?

Saddam won't take it...

Why do you say that?

Exactly. It makes it easier for UN authorization, which takes care of our world (and domestic) political problems, so it's definitely a way to go.
