[ This message has been sent to you via the CASI-analysis mailing list ] The following occurs in an article by Thalif Deen at antiwar.com What is known is that both UN mandates are to be executed under two conditions: Washington will not only keep its 130,000 troops in Iraq; it will also control the country's oil revenues. http://www.antiwar.com/ips/deen.php?articleid=2441 I am aware that the US will certainly keep its troops in Iraq and also even have control over Iraqi forces as I understand it but I was not aware that the US would continue to control oil revenues. Does anyone know of any source that would confirm this?
