Well, I disagree with all of course. But in particular, you are really fooling yourself about this: Ending the American occupation of Iraq, and establishing a UN coordinated peace keeping effort to relieve American troops and to defuse the terrorists there.

First off, the UN is scared to even go near Iraq. The UN Iraq team's Iraq office is now in Cyprus.

Second, if the UN were to get involved in Iraq, they would need the US to provide most of the armed force necessary. So the UN's involvement wouldn't relieve the US burden - it would mean the US would still carry the burden and take directions from the UN too.
