What is to happen next in Iraq ?

After having lost a few hundred soldiers, post-war, in Iraq, the US wishes the UN to be involved in Iraq.  It was always extremely unlikely that other countries [India and Pakistan together ?] would serve under US command in Iraq.  Does the new resolution ensure that the UN is supreme or that the UN is subservient to the US ?  [Do we not remember how US conservatives dismissed the UN in the weeks leading to the outbreak of hostilities in Iraq ?]  The arrogance is still present in the words "I have directed Secretary of State Colin Powell to introduce a new Security Council resolution which would authorize the creation of a multinational force in Iraq to be led by America." from Bush's speech.  He wants the UN to authorise a multinational force to be led by America.

However, whatever reservations France, Germany and Russia may have, it is the Iraqi people who are suffering.  Basic facilities, law and order and government are probably worse than they were under Saddam Hussein's rule.  Currently, the US, having come in to remove a regime that was sponsoring terror and possesed weapons of mass destruction and to liberate the Iraqis and restore democracy  are spending far more on their military presence than in actually rebuilding Iraq [Quote "Our coalition came to Iraq as liberators and we will depart as liberators"]. .  Surely, payments on salaries and hardship allowances, supplies and arms for the soldiers are an expense while construction and generation of employment in Iraq are an investment  ? [but the business graduate there doesn't know the difference]. [As per a BBC Report, although the US has allocated $7.2billion for reconstruction, it is also spending $3.9billion per month on occupation of Iraq].

We must appreciate the gall behind "Enemies of freedom are making a desperate stand there, and there they must be defeated. This will take time, and require sacrifice.  Yet we will do whatever is necessary, we will spend what is necessary, to achieve this essential victory in the war on terror, to promote freedom, and to make our own nation more secure."  As Bush says "The Middle East will either become a place of progress and peace, or it will be an exporter of violence and terror that takes more lives in America and in other free nations. The triumph of democracy and tolerance in Iraq, in Afghanistan and beyond would be a grave setback for international terrorism."    [The text of Bush's speech].
