The UN recognizes the US as an occupying power -- not as a liberating power. The US has seized control of Iraqi oil -- 1492 spells out the UN's acknowledgement that the conditions under which the UN administered the oil for food program no longer exist -- and there is no government in Iraq, only an army of occupation. Resolution 1492 terminates UN control and recognizes that Iraq has been invaded and is under the control of the invaders -- the US. Since Iraq has no government, Iraq has no control over its oil. The US controls Iraqi oil. Countries like Poland -- who are being paid by the US -- offer troops and a thin veneer of respectability and hope they will be treated with favor when the US makes decisions about Iraqi oil.
