>>I really mean it when I hope those backstabbers in the French government don't make a thin centime on any reconstruction of Iraq at this point.<< News analysts said yesterday - and it sounded right to me - that the UN charter and existing resolutions will allow them to engage in humanitarian aid to Iraq but engaging in post-Saddam governance without another UN resolution passed by the Security Council would not be lawful. The US of course has veto power on the Security Council. So I expect another nasty showdown between France and the US in the UN. I hope not, as it would do further damage to the UN, and US/France relations.
