UN to have no political power in postwar Iraq By Guy Dinmore and Peronet Despeignes in Washington and Henry,Hamman in Miami Published: March 20 2003 4:00 | Last Updated: March 20 2003 4:00 Statements by US officials have revealed the determination of the Bush administration to exert full and immediate authority over Iraq, while keeping options open in the long term.

Answering a question, he said he hoped that one of the first decisions of a new Iraqi government would be to recognise the state of Israel. ... read full story / add a comment
