["The proposal would give the United States far greater authority
over Iraq's lucrative oil industry than administration officials
have previously acknowledged. Buffeted by charges that the United
States was launching a war to gain control over Iraq's oil fields,
administration officials have for months sought to assure
governments that Iraq's oil revenue would remain in the hands of the
Iraqi people after the ouster of president Saddam Hussein."--Colum

["Washington and London sent a letter to the council president
recognizing their responsibilities and obligations under
international law 'as occupying powers.'
"Under the proposal, the 12-month initial authorisation would be
automatically renewed unless the Security Council decided otherwise.
Since the United States and Britain have veto power in the council,
they could block any attempt to get them to leave Iraq . . ."--"US and Britain seek to limit UN role in Iraq,"
